If you know nothing about Perl, you can read the documentation on your machine, if you have a Mac or Linux machine, by typing 'perldoc perl' to get a list of all the documention available for you to read. or surf your browser to CPAN.org and click on "Learn Perl" under "Getting Started". Lots of useful info there, including material about writing your first program, or click on "Perl documentation" for the stuff I mentioned before.
As Occam said: Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
