Sample Question and Answer

How do I Install a Perl Module?

  • find the module you want to install (try CPAN.org)

  • download and unpack the source

  • read the README for specific instructions

  • build the module (perl Makefile.PL; make; make test)

  • install the module (make install)

Keep the answer very simple. You do not have enough time to create master programmers and system administrators during your presentation. The advanced geeks probably don't need your help, but the beginners do!
