Question

Using Perl Program: Write a program with a subroutine to prompt the user for any message (like "what is your name?"). The sub will collect the user's answer and return it back to the call (in the main program above the subroutine). The sub does not accept any arguments. Print out the returned string (name) from the sub.

Answer 1

# Asking user for Input

print "What is your name?\n";

# Getting an age from the user

$name = <STDIN>;

  # Removes new line from the input

chomp $name;   

# Printing the value entered by user

print "Your name is ", $name;

Answer 2

Sure, here's a Perl program that uses a subroutine to prompt the user for input and then returns the user's answer to the main program:

perlCopy codeuse strict;use warnings;# Subroutine to prompt the user for input and return the answersub get_user_input {    print "Please enter a message: ";    my $input = <STDIN>;    chomp $input;    return $input;
}# Main programsub main {    # Call the subroutine to get user input
    my $message = get_user_input();    # Print the returned string
    print "You entered: $message\n";
}# Call the main programmain();

Save this code in a Perl file (e.g., prompt_user_input.pl) and run it. The program will prompt you to enter a message, and after you enter it, it will print the message back to you.
