      1 # Grade School
      2 
      3 Welcome to Grade School on Exercism's Perl 5 Track.
      4 If you need help running the tests or submitting your code, check out `HELP.md`.
      5 
      6 ## Instructions
      7 
      8 Given students' names along with the grade that they are in, create a roster
      9 for the school.
     10 
     11 In the end, you should be able to:
     12 
     13 - Add a student's name to the roster for a grade
     14   - "Add Jim to grade 2."
     15   - "OK."
     16 - Get a list of all students enrolled in a grade
     17   - "Which students are in grade 2?"
     18   - "We've only got Jim just now."
     19 - Get a sorted list of all students in all grades.  Grades should sort
     20   as 1, 2, 3, etc., and students within a grade should be sorted
     21   alphabetically by name.
     22   - "Who all is enrolled in school right now?"
     23   - "Let me think. We have
     24   Anna, Barb, and Charlie in grade 1,
     25   Alex, Peter, and Zoe in grade 2
     26   and Jim in grade 5.
     27   So the answer is: Anna, Barb, Charlie, Alex, Peter, Zoe and Jim"
     28 
     29 Note that all our students only have one name.  (It's a small town, what
     30 do you want?)
     31 
     32 ## For bonus points
     33 
     34 Did you get the tests passing and the code clean? If you want to, these
     35 are some additional things you could try:
     36 
     37 - If you're working in a language with mutable data structures and your
     38   implementation allows outside code to mutate the school's internal DB
     39   directly, see if you can prevent this. Feel free to introduce additional
     40   tests.
     41 
     42 Then please share your thoughts in a comment on the submission. Did this
     43 experiment make the code better? Worse? Did you learn anything from it?
