dear monks,
# Function oriented
use CGI qw(:standard);
print header;
print start_html("Hello World");
# Object Oriented
use CGI; # don't need qw(:standard)
$cgi = CGI->new; # ($cgi is now the object)
print $cgi->header; # function call: $obj->function
print $cgi->start_html("Hello World");
As you can see in the above 2 examples The CGI is used in function-oriented style and
object-oriented style. But I coult not find any document which explains about the function oriented
and object oriented way of using Perl modules. If any one can give me a brief explanation about that, would be a great help
Apologies if this has been discussed already

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
