In the above script, the print command is indented by one tab. Indentation makes it much easier to read your scripts. It is much easier to see where where blocks and other blocks begin and end if those blocks are indented. While Perl does not care about indentation, it is for all practical purposes required that you indent; if you have blocks inside of blocks, those will be indented further.
