Perl script to create/write into spreadsheet

Hi,

I need help in debug following script. can somebody help....!!!

Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel;

# Create a new workbook called simple.xls and add a worksheet.
my $workbook  = Spreadsheet::WriteExcel->new('simple.xls');
my $worksheet = $workbook->add_worksheet();

# The general syntax is write($row, $column, $token).
# Note that row and column are zero indexed.

# Write some text.
$worksheet->write(0, 0,  'Hi Excel!');


# Write some numbers.
$worksheet->write(2, 0,  3);          # Writes 3
$worksheet->write(3, 0,  3.00000);    # Writes 3
