Hello, I have been working with python for a while and I have to convert this algorithm into Perl and I have never used Perl so I just started but I need this done asap so any help would be appreciated.

1. Start

2. Ask user to input a positive integer (or a negative integer to stop)

3. Record the user's input

4. Test the input >= 0

4a. If true

4a1. Add the input to "running total"

4a2. Increment "number of inputs counter"

4a3. Test if "number of inputs counter" is equal to 1

4a31. If true, replace both "highest input" and "lowest input" with the input

4a5. If the input > "highest input" then replace "highest input" with input

4a6. If the input < "lowest input" then replace "lowest input" with input

4a7. Goto step 2

4b. If false

4b1. Goto step 5

5. Calculate the average (formula: "running total" /"number of inputs counter" )

6. Display/communicate the "highest input", "lowest input" and average

7. Terminate

Thanks for anybody who could convert this to Perl.
