Ask the root user of your machine. As an example of how these things
work, at my university I can put things on my website my putting files
in ~/public_html. Perl scripts may be used, but they will only be
executed if I give them a particular name. On other systems, perl
scripts will only be executed if they are put into a particular
directory.

The rules are arbitrary and were decided by my system administrators.
The only way you can find out is to ask the person who runs your
machine. If they run an IT support website, have a look on there.
