Hi there,
So the Perl Weekly Challenge - has an awesome impact. It encouraged a number of people who have never blogged anything about Perl, to publish articles week by week. It brought out some of the old-timers from their caves. It even managed to get Damian Conway to write more frequently. It is clearly the project with the biggest positive impact on the Perl community in recent years.
Check out the web-site to get more information and also to read about Mohammad S. Anwar, the man behind the PWC. How he got into programming
Enjoy your week!

Dave raised a question in the beginning that really made me think again. Is 2 a prime number?

by E. Choroba (CHOROBA)
I have noticed one thing in Choroba's solution is that he always go for CPAN module if available otherwise he creates one. It makes the final solution just few lines of code.
