How commands are executing ?

[Geofrey Rainey]

Binary programs are just that, compiled machine language.

Perl programs aren't, they're standard ascii, the Perl interpreter (/usr/bin/perl) does that part of it.

I have a small doubt, the binary commands under /bin and /sbin as well
as other path binary files, if you peek deep into that, you can find
the difference in the way of normal perl programming and some commands
will be like binary files. how are the commands executing like the
difference in perl scripting and binary files.
