For the recursive mkpath solution: Of course reading the docs helps. 
use strict;
use warnings;
use File::Path;
  my $name = shift;
  my $branch = shift;
  my $depth  = shift;
# We really should be checking arguments
# Bad things happen if $branch or $depth is 0

  print "Creating directory ",$name," with ",
        $branch, " branches to the depth of ",
        $depth, "\n";

  my $aref = MkTree($name, $branch, $depth, [] );

  foreach my $path ( @$aref ) {
    print $path, "\n";
  }
  mkpath($aref, 1, 0777);
exit;

sub MkTree {
  my ($name, $branch, $depth, $aref) = @_;
  
  my $start = "a";
  foreach my $pos (1..$branch) {
    my $let = chr(ord($start) + $pos - 1);
    if ( $depth == 1 ) {
      push(@$aref, join('/', $name, $let) );
    }
    else {
      MkTree( join('/', $name, $let), $branch,
              $depth-1, $aref);
    }
  }
  return $aref;
}
