Programming Details
Perl is a family of high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages. The languages in this family presently are Perl 5 and Perl 6.
|
When programming with Perl in an HPC environment you will need to change the first line as shown below |
#!/usr/bin/perl
To
#!/usr/bin/env perl
Programming example
Non MPI program
#!/usr/bin/env perl
#
# HPC
# IT Department
# Hull University

for($i = 0; $i < 1000; $i++)
{
print "A-->$i\n";
}
# ---------------- finish up and exit -------------------------------
exit;

This program does not contain any MPI directives and is shown simply for demonstrative purposes.
Although PERL does support MPI, its implementation is quite limited compared to C, C++, and Fortran. |
MPI program
#!/usr/bin/env perl

# Written by DBird 25/12/2017
use Parallel::MPI::Simple;
MPI_Init();
my $rank = MPI_Comm_rank(MPI_COMM_WORLD);
if ($rank == 1)
{
my $msg = "Hello, I'm $rank";
MPI_Send($msg, 0, 123, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
}
else
{
my $msg = MPI_Recv(1, 123, MPI_COMM_WORLD);
print "$rank received: '$msg'\n";
}
MPI_Finalise();
exit;
Running the program
The program could be executed in the following way for test purposes on the login node:
[username@login01 ~]$ module add perl/5.24.0 [username@login01 ~]$ perl testPerl.pl
Batch example
