Thank you. When I enter that command, the reply is "No missing packages to install", which would lead one to believe that the module is installed properly.

But, when I put code like:

use MATH::Random;
$a = random_uniform(45);
print "\na=$a";
[download]

I get an error message:
Can't locate loadable object for module Math::Random in @INC

In perl/lib/Math I have a file named Random.pl
I have other pieces of the download scattered all around the disc, since I had no idea what was supposed to go where.

If ppm could find the module, why couldn't perl?
