Hello World in Perl. First Perl program.
The simple script below prints the message Hello World using perl. Perl may be old, but once you start learning it, there is so much more you can do with it over PHP.

Is Perl still worth learning in 2011?
If Perl provides you with the functions you need, then it is definately worth learning.

Make sure that #!/usr/bin/perl points to the correct path on your machine or webspace.

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Hello World.\n";
