Aside from the Perl project itself what were the Perl projects published that had a positive impact in the world--whether in the tech industry or even for hackers and hobbyists. I ask to better understand what Perl is and is not useful for.

So I came across a book named "Higher-Order Perl" which teaches how to apply functional coding concepts to complete tasks in Perl. Have you used the book's techniques in your production-deployed projects? If so how did the book's advice help?

Hi everyone. I am still researching how to benefit from Perl as a security engineer. I heard you can use Perl to test for security exploits in codebases? What have you used Perl for in he past? What did you find of most helpful for in your coding journey?

[aside] This is not a cross-post. Few days ago I asked the same thing on Stack Overflow, and there were several answers, but none of them works really perfect.)
I have a folder with the following files there:
1.mp3 1.mp3.mp4 1.mp4.mp3 1.txt 2.mp3 2.mp3.mp4 2.mp4.mp3 2.txt foo.mp3 foo.mp3.mp4 foo.mp4.mp3 foo.txt foo1.mp3 foo1.mp3.mp4 foo1.mp4.mp3 foo1.txt foo2.mp3 foo2.mp3.mp4 foo2.mp4.mp3 foo2.txt
Filenames like foo.mp4.mp3 mean that originally the file was MP4 and later converted to MP3.
I need to batch rename MP3 files there, so that their numbers will be padded with leading zeros, that is, 1.mp3 should be renamed 0001.mp3, 1.mp4.mp3 to 0001.mp4.mp3, foo1.mp3 to foo001.mp3, and so on.
Here are several attempts by other people:
rename -n 's/(\d+)/sprintf "%03d", $1/e' *.mp3rename -n 's/(\d+)\.mp3/sprintf "%03d.mp3", $1/e' *.mp3rename -n 's/(\d+)(\.mp3)/sprintf("%03d", $1) . $2/e or s/(\d+)(\.mp3)/sprintf "%03d%s", $1, $2/e' *.mp3rename -n 's/(\d+)(\.mp3)/sprintf "%03d%s", $1, $2/e' *.mp3rename -n 's/(\d+)(?=\.mp3)/sprintf "%03d", $1/e' *.mp3- and my own, doesn't work either:
rename -n 's/(\d)(\.[^.]+)/sprintf "%03d%s", $1, $2/e' *
Maybe there is a Perl wizard here who could help me?
