Hey Congrats on your first CPAN module! I opt for Algorithm::Shape::RandomTree, which basically says "this module calculates the shape of a tree, randomly", which is exactly what you want. You could also go for Algorithm::Shape::Tree. RandomTree tries to explicitly mention the idea of randomisati

I generally think of "Algorithm" as having to do with mathematics or computer-science and "Tree" has a very specific computer science meaning, so seeing just those words together wouldn't make me think of something very different than what your module does. I'd try to work in the idea of "shape" o
