by Tom Christiansen, Nathan Torkington

Originally designed for manipulating files and data, the Perl programming language has since matured into a mature object-oriented language, while maintaining the elegance and simplicity that attracted programmers from the very start. Perl has become the language best suited both for system administration tasks and for CGI programming on the World Wide Web.
