The current version of Perl is Perl 5 (the latest release is 5.36).

The language now called Raku was originally called Perl 6.  It was
intended to be the next version of Perl, but it diverged enough that it
was decided to rename it.  (There's more to the history, but this isn't
the place to discuss it.)

(There was a Perl 2, released in 1988.)
