#By default, these filehandles are associated with your terminal.
#When printing output to the terminal screen, STDOUT is used.
#When printing errors, STDERR is used.
#When assigning user input to a variable, STDIN is used.
#The Perl <> input operator encloses the STDIN filehandle.
#The next line of standard input can be read from the keyboard.
#If you don't want the newline, then you have to "chomp" it off.
