You want to download the contents of a url with perl. How would you do that?..

Answer / Ram Chandra Pal

To download the contents of a URL in Perl, you can use the LWP::UserAgent module to handle HTTP requests. Here's an example:
```perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use LWP::UserAgent;
my $url = 'http://example.com';
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
my $response = $ua->get($url);
if ($response->is_success) {
print $response->decoded_content;
} else {
print "Failed to download the URLn";
}
```
