My first contribution to CPAN was Test::Excel. It was initiated as we had requirement for such at work at that time. It has gone through many changes, thanks to all for reporting issues and providing patches.. It even got space as topic for Day 18 in Perl Advent Calendar 2018. It was a proud moment when a collegue of mine at work requested help with Test::Excel as it was not behaving as per her requirements.

I have seen both styles and I believe it is just a matter of personal choice and style.

Those who know me personally, are aware that my background is Mathematical as I did Degree in Mathematics Honours in the year 1993-95. During my early days with COBOL and Pascal, I never dealt with Unicode or played with bytes. Even when I moved to C, I was still no where near it. Those with Degree in Computer Science always stay ahead in the understandings of these low level key aspects of programming.

I received a FREE copy of the book, a big thank you to brian d foy.

You can checkout my event report, if you are interested.
