An interactive shell is useful for quickly trying out different commands. While Ruby, Python, and Clojure come with interactive shells, Perl does not. However, it is easy to create one using this one-liner on Unix systems:
perl -e 'do{print("perl> ");$_x=<>;chomp $_x;print(eval($_x)."\n")}while($_x ne "q")'
