Perl Weekly=20
https://perlweekly.com/
You can read the newsletter on the web, if you prefer.
https://perlweekly.com/archive/529.html
Hi there!
A long long time ago, when I was in high school, I participated in the
annual competition of K=C3=B6MaL, the Mathematical and Physical Journal for=
High
Schools ( https://www.komal.hu/ ). (Look for the little UK flag for the
English version). Back then we sent in the solution by snail-mail and we
only had to write our name to be identified. However people with very
common names were asked to include a 3-digit number between their names.
There was no verification that two people with the exact same name did not
pick the same number, but the chances were slim. Because my name is way too
common in Hungary I picked the number 529 because it is 23^2. Funnily, if
you squint it also resembles the initials of my name: SzG
Anyway, if you or your kids like math, informatics, or physics, I'd
recommend it!
Enjoy your week!

Cutting the fat: Lightweight Perl OO modules

CPAN has a rich history of lighter-weight OO modules to meet many differe=
nt
needs. If you can live with their trade-offs, they're worth investigating
instead of rolling your own layer over Perl's OO. Here are a few:
Class::Struct, Class::Accessor, Class::Tiny, Object::Tiny, and more.
