Explain the arguments for perl interpreter...

Answer / Utkarsh Srivastava

The Perl interpreter accepts several command-line arguments. Here are some of them:n
1. Script file: The first argument is usually the name of the script you want to run.n```bashnperl myscript.pl```
2. Switches: Perl supports a number of switches (options) that can be passed to change its behavior. Some common switches include `-w` for warnings, `-d` for debugging, and `-e` to run code inline instead of from a file.
3. Code: If no script file is specified, you can provide the Perl code directly as a command-line argument using the `-e` switch.
