in reply to RFC: How to succeed with your Perl homework

use Data::Dumper; is optional. It's not part of the Perl core.
Data::Dumper is a Core module; just ask corelist:
corelist Data::Dumper Data::Dumper was first released with perl 5.005

It should already be installed.

No how-to guide is complete without a mention of the free online Perl documentation, i.e., perlintro

%course = {code => $code; weekday => $day, time => $time, title => $title, location => location};

Did you really want those >?

    I would say, if you're mentioning documentation, point out that the documentation comes with Perl. You'll have all the documentation, even if your network is down - or if you're behind a firewall. No need to depend on a remote side being up either.
