Deane-

Was the book written with Larry's blessing? maybe he had it changed to 
confuse people if it wasn't!


more seriously though, try setting a variable and then putting that to the 
variable so.....


        use Readonly;
        Readonly my $DATA_COLS => 7;    # this is line 103 in the code...

becomes...

        use Readonly;
        my $cols = 7;
        Readonly my $DATA_COLS => $cols;    # this is line 103 in the 
code...


this has an advantage where in the future you can make many duplicate 
tables easier, or pass $cols to the function and allow it to become more 
modular.... or maybe i'm just trying to find a reason why that might not 
be a detriment to have to set a variable first....
