How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Perl to Objective_C in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Perl code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting Objective_C code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Perl to Objective_C using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.
Perl
Objective_C
Example 2 - Even or Odd
A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.

Key differences between Perl and Objective_C
Characteristic | Perl | Objective_C |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Perl has a flexible and expressive syntax with a focus on regular expressions and text processing. | Objective-C has a syntax similar to C with added features for object-oriented programming. |
Paradigm | Perl supports multiple programming paradigms including procedural, object-oriented, and functional programming. | Objective-C is primarily an object-oriented programming language. |
Typing | Perl is dynamically typed, allowing variables to hold values of any type. | Objective-C is statically typed, requiring explicit declaration of variable types. |
Performance | Perl is generally slower in terms of performance compared to compiled languages like Objective-C. | Objective-C is a compiled language and generally offers better performance than interpreted languages like Perl. |
Libraries and frameworks | Perl has a wide range of libraries and frameworks available for various purposes, including web development, database access, and system administration. | Objective-C has a strong ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, particularly for iOS and macOS development. |
Community and support | Perl has an active community and good support resources available, although it may not be as large as some other programming languages. | Objective-C has a strong community and extensive support resources, particularly for iOS and macOS development. |
Learning curve | Perl has a relatively steep learning curve due to its flexible syntax and various programming paradigms. | Objective-C has a moderate learning curve, especially for developers familiar with C or other C-based languages. |
