Perl/Interactive
From ScientificComputing
Unlike Python and Java, Perl does not provide an interactive console. But it is possible to execute Perl command in your shell. For running the command print "Hello\n" in a shell, you need to call perl -e.
[sfux@eu-login-05 ~]$ module load new gcc/4.8.2 perl/5.16.3 Now run 'perl-init' to initialize your environment for Perl [sfux@eu-login-05 ~]$ perl-init [sfux@eu-login-05 ~]$ perl -e 'print "Hello\n";' Hello [sfux@eu-login-05 ~]$
There are some additional Perl packages, which provide an interactive Perl console, but they are not fully supported on our clusters.
