This week, Joelle Maslak sent us the first solution in Perl6 as Pull Request [#265]. Then came Scimon Proctor, again in Perl6 as Pull Request [#266]. Kevin Colyer submitted the next in Perl6 as Github gist. By now, I started thinking where are all #Perl5 hackers. I didn’t have to wait longer, Pete Houston sent us the solution in Perl5 by email. Finally we had our first complete solution in Perl5 by Dave Jacoby as Pull Request [#271]. Chart started looking balanced.
The Perl Weekly Challenge 013 is also very special as it is the first challenge that has prize associated with it. It is always nice to be rewarded but we will keep the focus on Fun and Knowledge Sharing.

Adam is a very active member of the team. His blog introduced me to few interesting links. You should check it out yourself. [#1] [#2] [BLOG]
Andrezgz
Like, most of the members, Andrezgz also used DateTime module to solve the friday challenge. For recursive method challenge, he kept it simple and clean. I noticed something really special $/. Any guesses? [#1] [[#2](https://github.com/manwar/perlweeklychallenge-club/blob/master/challenge-013/andrezgz/perl5/ch-2.pl]
