PERL Scripting for ASIC Verification --Need Help

[novice_vlsi]

Hi,
I just started learning PERL. What part of PERL I have to concentrate for ASIC VERIFICATION.

Can anybody point me to sample scripts to invoke testbench.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Every thing in perl starting from scalars,arrays,hashs,lists...,is important

But,concentrate more on File handlers,Regular expressions....,which are more important in PERL

I am not sure scripting is the answer for verification. My view is that you can write scripts to drive commands. We usually use systemverilog and C++ to do our verification in conjuction with OVM.

Yes....,you need to prepare verilog,system verilog,c,c++

But do learn PERL as u go into a project, you may be asked to do some part of automation(like segregating error messages from log files and dumping them into a new error manager file etc.) which you cant do without the help of PERL. Concentrate more on Arrays, String & FIle handling parts.
