Hi,
require $file is like do $file, except the former:
checks for redundant loading, skipping already loaded
files.
raises an exception on failure to find, compile, or
execute $file.
use Module is like require Module, except the former:
loads the module at compile time, not run-time.
imports symbols and semantics from that package to
the current one.
Thanks,
Gopal R.
