String
(1.5)
This module makes a close approximation of the JavaScript "String" object for Perl, offering functions like String.toUpperCase as a replacement for "uc":
my $x = new String("Perl");
$x->toUpperCase;
instead of
$x = "Perl";
uc $x;
Perhaps it's meant to be useful for a JavaScript programmer coming to Perl for the first time, or as part of a backend for some kind of automated JavaScript to Perl convertor, but the documentation doesn't mention why Perl needs this.
