Here are examples in the Perl programming language: Look for duplicate words; perl -0777 -ne ' print "$.: doubled $_\n" while /\b(\w+)\b\s+\b\1\b/gi ' Find Palindromes in /usr/dict/words; perl -lne ' print if $_ eq reverse ' /usr/dict/words in-place edit of *.c files changing all foo to bar; perl -p -i.bak -e ' s/\bfoo\b/bar/g ' *.c Many one ...
Perl makes important use of its capability to execute Perl code during the compile phase. Perl will also delay compilation into the run phase. The terms that indicate the kind of processing that is actually occurring at any moment are compile time and run time. Perl is in compile time at most points during the compile phase, but compile time ...
Note that the C code under the CODE: section calls the _do_sv_catsv() pure-C function that was defined in the prior section. Perl’s documentation explains the meaning and purpose of all of the “special” symbols (e.g., aTHX_ and RETVAL) shown above. To make this module available to Perl it must be compiled.
The hash mark character introduces a comment in Perl, which runs up to the end of the line of code and is ignored by the compiler (except on Windows). The comment used here is of a special kind: it’s called the shebang line.
Perl Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE) is a library written in C, which implements a regular expression engine, inspired by the capabilities of the Perl programming language. Philip Hazel started writing PCRE in summer 1997. [ 3 ]
SWIG will compile the interface file and generate code in regular C/C++ and the target programming language. SWIG will generate conversion code for functions with simple arguments; conversion code for complex types of arguments must be written by the programmer.
The Perl virtual machine is a stack-based process virtual machine implemented as an opcodes interpreter which runs previously compiled programs written in the Perl language. The opcodes interpreter is a part of the Perl interpreter, which also contains a compiler (lexer, parser and optimizer) in one executable file, commonly /usr/bin/perl on various Unix-like systems or perl.exe on Microsoft ...
The core of PDL is written in C. Most of the functionality is written in PP, a PDL-specific metalanguage that handles the vectorization of simple C snippets and interfaces them with the Perl host language via Perl's XS compiler. Some modules are written in Fortran, with a C/PP interface layer. Many of the supplied functions are written in PDL ...
