6.13 Conclusions

This chapter has discussed how directory structures—small or large—can be processed using recursive subroutines. Dealing with file and directory structures is important in many applications and this chapter shows how a variety of useful tasks can be performed with ease. There are quite a few pre-defined modules beyond the ones discussed in this chapter. One can search the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network (www.cpan.org) for the latest modules available.
