Perl version used when running the script

[lfchew1]

If I need to use a certain perl version only to run by script, is
there a way to check that before my script continue down the main body
of the code?
Or is there any way we can check the version?

perldoc -f use

perldoc perlvar
and check for $^V

perldoc perlvar
and check for $^V

$] is safer when dealing with potentially old perls.
