In order to understand the importance of most CPANs modules I would rather try to do it first by myself (without cheating) and then compare mine with one masterpiece to know how much of experience was involved in developing them.
And I actively encourage that, as long as you keep the result in the privacy of your own cubicle, or if you post it, you label it as such.
It's one thing to post your copy of the Mona Lisa as "here's my attempt to make a copy". It's an entirely different thing to post it as "here's my original art!" and then people go "blech", and rightfully so.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
