qq() operator in Perl can be used in place of double quotes. It uses a set of parentheses to surround the string.

Syntax: qq (string)

Return:
a double-quoted string

Note: Any set of delimiters can be used in place of the parentheses.
 
Example 1:




#!/usr/bin/perl -w
  
# Passing string to qq operator
print(qq(Welcome to GeeksForGeeks));


Output:

Welcome to GeeksForGeeks

 
Example 2:




#!/usr/bin/perl -w
  
# Defining an Integer variable
$var = 15;
  
# Passing string and variable to
# the qq operator
print(qq(GeeksforGeeks, $var));


Output:

GeeksforGeeks, 15
