=head1 NAME perlfaq - Frequently asked questions about Perl =head1 VERSION version 5.20180605 =head1 DESCRIPTION The perlfaq comprises several documents that answer the most commonly asked questions about Perl and Perl programming. It's divided by topic into nine major sections outlined in this document. =head2 Where to find the perlfaq The perlfaq is an evolving document. Read the latest version at L<http://learn.perl.org/faq/>. It is also included in the standard Perl distribution. =head2 How to use the perlfaq The C<perldoc> command line tool is part of the standard Perl distribution. To read the perlfaq: $ perldoc perlfaq To search the perlfaq question headings: $ perldoc -q open =head2 How to contribute to the perlfaq Review L<https://github.com/perl-doc-cats/perlfaq/wiki>. If you don't find your suggestion create an issue or pull request against L<https://github.com/perl-doc-cats/perlfaq>. Once approved, changes are merged into L<https://github.com/tpf/perlfaq>, the repository which drives L<http://learn.perl.org/faq/>, and they are distributed with the next Perl 5 release. =head2 What if my question isn't answered in the FAQ?
