But for using "say", we must include a line before the script like "use 5.10" rite? (not quite sure about the version)

    If you write a one-liner, using -E instead of -e enables the new features like say.
    Perl 6 - links to (nearly) everything that is Perl 6.
      Unfortunately, in spoj, one-liners are not allowed!

      So, the only way to use those options are
      #!perl -nE #program goes here

      So, using those actually increases the size of the program for small tasks!
