I almost would say that questions or quizes might be better as meditations than SoPW (you're not strictly looking for help, you're offering an exercise to improve ones Perl skills), but that's just me.
On the topic of quizzes, I seem to remember there used to be one that MJD ran (but that got derailed by his work on HOP, I think :). The Ruby people have rubyquiz.com that's posted to ruby-talk semi-regularly, and I want to say someone used to do something similar on the fun-with-perl list. Might be interesting to take some of the Ruby quiz problems and compare solutions . . . :)

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.
