Perl has the mkdir function. Go to perldoc.perl.org and look for the mkdir function for details.

The Perl module File has File::Copy which copies files or filehandles. Go to cpan.org and search for File::Copy for details.

Not system commands.It is a function.See the below link
mkdir - perldoc.perl.org
and you can call it like using any other perl function

Search Google. At this point, you have been given the answer to your question. If you are going to keep adding restrictions to it, you're on your own. You will find all the answers via Google, especially now that you have a better idea about what keywords to use.
