Please read the doc for use().
perldoc -f use
Imports some semantics into the current package
from the named module, generally by aliasing cer
tain subroutine or variable names into your pack
age. It is exactly equivalent to
BEGIN { require Module; import Module LIST; }
use == require + import (almost), and we don't need import() to get the
sharing in place.
