What's the difference between:

/usr/bin/perl

and
/bin/sh

?

Why some scripts need to use /usr/bin/perl and some need to use /bin/sh?

Thanks in advance! :)

the top would be for something written in perl, the 2nd would be for something written for shell. While some commands look similar, they are not the same language.
