Sorry for the possible super basic question.

How do I incorporate the List::Util module into the perl library with OSX? I mean I have no
idea what to download and where to save the file I downloaded.

Thanks

It should already be installed, I think.

Try this command:

perl -MList::Util -e '1'

If it produces no output, you already have it.

If you get an error about it not being available, run these commands:

bash
export FTP_PASSSIVE=1
sudo perl -MCPAN 'install List::Util'

You will probably be asked a series of questions from that last one; in
most cases the defaults are fine. Once the questions are done, it should
find, download, and install the module for you.

The Perl beginners list is the right place for these sorts of questions:
<beginners@perl.org> or <http://learn.perl.org/>
