Hi All,

Can anyone tell me it is mandatory to define #!/usr/bin/perl at the starting of any perl programm?

I have not use this string in my programm still it is running without any error? I want to know the use of this string at the start of programm.

Regards,

It's for running Perl programs under Unix-like OS.

I think your quite correct although you can alias this pre-command to run automatically
