+=head1 #1 Perfect numbers
+
+=over 4
+
+Write a script that computes the first five perfect numbers. A perfect number is
+an integer that is the sum of its positive proper divisors (all divisors except
+itself). Please check L<Wiki|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_number> for
+more information. This challenge was proposed by Laurent Rosenfeld.
+
+=back
+
+Mine is a straightforward implementation of the naive solution. But it's very
+inefficient. On my computer it takes about two seconds to print the first four
+perfect numbers (6, 28, 496, and 8128). However, I didn't have the patience to
+wait for it to print the fifth number, as it's very large and the time
+complexity of the algorithm that checks if a number is perfect is linear (O(n))
+on the number size.
+
+=head1 #2 Center lines
+
+=over 4
+
+Write a function, ‘center’, whose argument is a list of strings, which will be
+lines of text. The function should insert spaces at the beginning of the lines
+of text so that if they were printed, the text would be centered, and return the
+modified lines.
+
+=back
+
+This is a simple problem with a simple solution which I implemented in a three
+line long function.
+
+The script reads lines from STDIN or from the files passed to it as arguments
+and invokes the C<center> function for all the lines, printing them centered.
