Depends on how and what type of Proggram or code you want to write. Here is a little definition on what perl can do and capabale of:

Perl works with existing C libraries
- Through either the XS or SWIG interfaces, Perl programs can use your legacy C libraries.

Perl handles memory management internally
- Perl handles memory management so that programmers don't have to spend time creating memory management bugs which are the most frequent source of security holes.

If you would like something that control H/Ware basically you may try to write codes on Assembly Language. Python can do the trick too. All Depends on your needs.

SEND_ARP(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       SEND_ARP(8)

NAME
send_arp - Send out one ARP packet with source/target IP and Ethernet hardware addresses suuplied by the user. SYNOPSIS
send_arp sndr_ip_addr sndr_hw_addr targ_ip_addr targ_hw_addr [src_int [src_hw_addr [dest_hw_addr]]] DESCRIPTION
send_arp This program sends out one ARP packet with source/target IP and Ethernet hardware addresses suuplied by the user. It compiles and works on Linux and will probably work on any Unix that has SOCK_PACKET. The idea behind this program is a proof of a concept, nothing more. It comes as is, no warranty. However, you're allowed to use it under one condition: you must use your brain simultaneously. If this condition is not met, you shall forget about this program and go RTFM imme- diately. OPTIONS
sndr_ip_addr Sender IP address for ARP packet. sndr_hw_addr Sender Hardware address for ARP packet. targ_ip_addr Target IP address for ARP packet. targ_hw_addr Target Hardware address for ARP packet. src_int Source Interface for ARP packet. src_hw_addr Source layer2 Hardware address for ARP packet. dest_hw_addr Destination layer2 Hardware address for ARP packet. AUTHORS
send_arp - Yuri Volobuev <volobuev@t1.chem.umn.edu> man page - Horms <horms@verge.net.au> layer2 patch - Patrick Koppen <patrick@koppen.de> 30th October 2003 SEND_ARP(8)
