Those are programming styles, rather than language types. You can write both
function- and object-oriented programs in perl. Process-oriented programming is
possible to a limited extent, but it is not automated in the way you would
expect for a language intended for that style.

  It has no function in Perl 5. In perl 6 it compares to see if two items refer
  to the same object, so for instance

  @list === @{\@list}

  is true.

  By convention it separates a key from a value in the query part of a URL

And I really really hope this isn't homework. If it is then you must tell us and
 also give me credit for your answers when you turn it in.
