What is Perl Data Language?

PDL ("Perl Data Language") provides a powerful array-oriented numerical computing framework within the Perl programming language. It enables efficient storage and manipulation of large N-dimensional data arrays, which are central to scientific computing workflows. PDL transforms Perl into a free, open-source numerical language comparable to commercial packages like IDL and MATLAB, but with unique capabilities
