beginner in Perl.

"Beginning Perl".

You are in a CPAN shell, which you asked for in the command
perl use_module(CPAN) execute(SHELL)
or *something like that* :-) that you typed into the command line.

Look at the perlvar manpage. @_ is the array that has the
parameters passed to a function.

That would be the CPAN prompt. Try "help" for a terse
command listing, "quit" to exit back to the DOS prompt.
CPAN is the Perl module installer. Check

Hi,
you need to give it some code to compile. Create a plain text file and put some code
into it, for example:
print "hello\n";
Save it somewhere. Then on the command line (the DOS thingy), cd to where you made
this file and type:
perl myperlscript.pl
Where 'myperlscript.pl' is the name you'v
you should visit <http://www.perl.org>
