Explain the difference between die and exit in perl?

Answer Posted / Mahfooz Ali

In Perl, both `my` and `local` are used to declare variables with a limited scope. The main difference lies in their lifetime:

* `my` variables are declared within the current lexical scope (subroutine or block). They retain their value across function calls.
* `local` variables are declared within the current dynamic scope (subroutine call). Their lifetime ends when the subroutine returns.
