course codes

Courses are labeled by a unique Perl Workshop code. The code has the format category . course . level . sessions [.session].

• category represents the broad topic area covered by the course
• course is a unique course identifier within a given category
• level encodes the level of difficulty from 0 (all) to 3 (advanced)
• sessions gives the number of lectures in the course
• .session is an optional session index field which is used when the code refers to a sessions; for example 1.0.1.8 encodes "Introduction to Perl" but 1.0.1.8.2 refers to the second session in the course.

All code components are zero-indexed except for the final optional session index.
