You don't have to use the CPAN module to install things from CPAN
itself, of course.

In the end, whether you code something yourself or download a module
from CPAN depends upon your objectives, and how you want to spend your
time. If your goal is to spend time coding and debugging, you should
certainly write your own code. If you've want a task solved quickly,
cheaply, and correctly, your best bet is a module that's already been
coded and debugged.
