Perl stands in for "Practical Extraction and Reporting Language" even though there is no authorized acronym for Perl. You may create your own acronym, and no one will mind. Perl was created by Larry Wall in 1987 when he was employed on a bug reporting system and "AWK"- a programming language he was using for the purpose was not helping him much. He is still the chief architect and developer of Perl. If we want to define Perl in one sentence: Perl is a high-level, interpreted, dynamic programming language.
