Larry Wall released the first version of the high-level general purpose interpreted programming language Perl in 1987. Since then, Larry Wall has been overseeing the development and revisions of the programming language. The latest preview version is 5.15.3 and Wall is overseeing the upcoming version 6 of the language. Perl was started as a UNIX scripting language and has become widely popular since 1990s when it was begun to be adopted as a CGI scripting language for web programming. Perl is flexible and its parsing and pattern matching capability facilitates various system and scientific tasks. Thank you Larry for your great work!
