See Yes, even you can use CPAN, and also note that Text::CSV is pure Perl and can be installed as part of your code.

    Yes, but some folks truly cannot use CPAN at $work. I know this from first-hand experience. Looking at the list of @reasons cited in and under Yes, even you can use CPAN, I had all of them; and when "Manager" is a faceless bureaucracy and "IT department" is simply adhering to mountains of policy written in stone... No, you can't use CPAN.

      In extreme cases, one could even go so far as to pack pure-Perl module code at the end of one's script. Text::CSV's license is the same as Perl's. So what's the (hypothetical) problem in this case?

        Indeed, that's the best-case scenario; and it still isn't great, since it means typing in, by hand, the code from the module.
