Where is Perl used?

Perl has several uses from simple to the complicated:

  • In its simplest form, Perl can be used to extract data from a text file and print out a report
  • It is also used for system administration, network prototyping, security, data mining and statistical analysis

Here’s what you will learn from Perl online classes!

  • Develop Perl applications using its object oriented features and learn to use its classes and objects
  • Use the advanced modules of Perl and also learn how to debug your applications
  • Integrate Perl scripts with databases using the DBI module
  • Extend Perl with C/C++ and get speed, type safety and other features in your programs

Is this coaching right for you?

Perl programmers who want to learn the more advanced features of Perl will find this Perl  certification course useful.
