	<title><![CDATA[Perl One liner basics !!]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Perl has a ton of command line switches (see perldoc perlrun), but I'm just going to cover the ones you'll commonly need to debug code. The most important switch is -e, for execute (or maybe "engage" :) ). The -e switch takes a quoted string of Perl code and executes it. For example:<br /><br />$ perl -e 'print "Hello, World!\n"'<br />Hello, World!<br /><br />It's important that you use single-quotes to quote the code for -e. This usually means you can't use single-quotes within the one liner code. If you're using Windows cmd.exe or PowerShell, you must use double-quotes instead.<br /><br />I'm always forgetting what Perl's predefined special variables do, and often test them at the command line with a one liner to see what they contain. For instance do you remember what $^O is?<br /><br />$ perl -e 'print "$^O\n"'<br />linux<br /><br />It's the operating system name. With that cleared up, let's see what else we can do. If you're using a relatively new Perl (5.10.0 or higher) you can use the -E switch instead of -e. This turns on some of Perl's newer features, like say, which prints a string and appends a newline to it. This saves typing and makes the code cleaner:<br /><br />$ perl -E 'say "$^O"'<br />linux<br /><br />Pretty handy! say is a nifty feature that you'll use again and again.</p>]]></description>
