You need to learn perl.

This code is executing a SQL query (which in it's self seems to be calling stored procedure). Declaring a hash, assigning come variables with values and then closing the db connection.

Hi

You'd need to look at the surrounding script as well to understand it. It's a lot to understand in one go though. I would struggle to explain this code in person, to somelne sho didn't understand Perl.
