Hi there!

The Perl and Raku Conference ( https://tprc.us/tprc-2025-gsp/ ) was held 2
weeks ago, videos are being uploaded to YouTube (
https://www.youtube.com/-at-YAPCNA )

Sad news: Mark Keating posted that Matt S. Trout (mst) passed away (
https://www.shadowcat.co.uk/2025/07/09/ripples-they-cause-in-the-world/ ).
Mark also collected the comments and publications of others.

Podcast: MetaCPAN - Underbar episode 3 (

I started the Perl Weekly newsletter 14 years ago and (the precursor of)
the Perl Maven site 20 years ago. Recently I started to write a booklet
about OOP in Perl. I love providing consulting, development, and training
services to companies, but I still prefer creating free content. I could
do more of the latter if you also supported me. There are several ways to
do that. You can do it via Patreon ( https://www.patreon.com/szabgab ),
GitHub ( https://github.com/sponsors/szabgab/ ), PayPal (
https://paypal.me/szabgab ), or by buying one of my books (

RECAP - The Weekly Challenge - 329
https://theweeklychallenge.org/blog/recap-challenge-329
=20
Enjoy a quick recap of last week's contributions by Team PWC dealing with
the "Counter Integers" and "Nice String" tasks in Perl and Raku. You will
find plenty of solutions to keep you busy.
--------------

=20
Let=E2=80=99s Count All of Our Nice Strings
http://www.rabbitfarm.com/cgi-bin/blosxom/perl/2025/07/13
=20
A creative and playful dive into string processing in Perl. The code is
modular, well-commented, and structured using Literate Programming style
fragments.
--------------

=20
TWC329
https://deadmarshal.blogspot.com/2025/07/twc329.html
=20
The solutions are crisp, Perlish, and demonstrate a good grasp of regular
expressions and bitwise logic.
--------------

=20
Counter Nice
https://raku-musings.com/counter-nice.html
=20
The post tackles both parts of the challenge with thoughtful code and
helpful inline commentary. It's Well-documented, beginner-friendly and a
good demonstration of Raku=E2=80=99s expressiveness.

Nice Integers
https://github.sommrey.de/the-bears-den/2025/07/11/ch-329.html
=20
The use of uniqint over a simple digit-matching regex is clean and

overcomplication.
--------------

=20
mangling strings
https://fluca1978.github.io/2025/07/10/PerlWeeklyChallenge329.html
=20
Raku solutions are idiomatic and concise, leveraging regex and built-ins
elegantly. An outstanding, well-organized exploration of polyglot
programming applied to algorithmic problem solving.
--------------

=20
Perl Weekly Challenge 329
https://wlmb.github.io/2025/07/07/PWC329/
=20
The post provides elegant and efficient solutions to the tasks,
demonstrating a deep understanding of Perl's capabilities. The reflective
analysis adds valuable insights into the complexities of problem-solving
in programming.
--------------

or
anyone interested in clean problem-solving and Perl-specific insights.
--------------

=20
It MUST be nice!
https://packy.dardan.com/b/Xd
=20
The post delivers solid, multi-language solutions to two algorithmic
tasks=E2=80=94extracting distinct integers from mixed strings and identif=
ying the
longest "nice" substring=E2=80=94with clear thought processes and thoroug=

commentary. The musical theater references and clever title pun, helps
make technical content more approachable.
--------------

=20
Fun with strings
http://ccgi.campbellsmiths.force9.co.uk/challenge/329
=20
The post does a great job of highlighting ambiguities in specifications. =
It
identifies potential edge cases (a9a09a) and makes reasonable assumptions
while also pointing out how easily such details can be overlooked or
underspecified.
--------------

=20
Nice Counter
https://blog.firedrake.org/archive/2025/07/The_Weekly_Challenge_329__Nice=
_Counter.html
