Task

Send a GET request to obtain the resource located at the URL "https://www.w3.org/", then print it to the console.  
Checking the host certificate for validity is recommended.  
Do not authenticate. That is the subject of other tasks.  
Readers may wish to contrast with the HTTP Request task, and also the task on HTTPS request with authentication.

There are several modules that provide HTTPS capability. WWW and HTTP::UserAgent are probably the most popular right now, but others exist.

```
use WWW;
say get 'https://sourceforge.net/';

```

or

```
use HTTP::UserAgent;
say HTTP::UserAgent.new.get('https://sourceforge.net/').content;

```
