I noticed this lines gives an error when there are no words of a given length:
$size[$_] = @{ $list[ $_ ] } for 1..$phrase_length;
The error is:
Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at anagram.pl line
+34.
I fixed it with this:
for my $length ( 1..$phrase_length )
{
my $ref = ref $list[ $length ];
$size[$length]
= ( $ref =~ /ARRAY/ ? @{ $list[ $length ] } : 0 );
}
(I didn't find an easier way, though I didn't look too hard.)
I'd be interested in seeing any improvements you (or anyone else) has made to this offline.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
