Re: Generating ranges of numbers

[Anonymous Monk]

Sounds like homework.

Can you describe the algorithm you would use in your own words?

But most importantly: Why is "1 2 3" turned into "1:3" but "5 6 7" turned into "5:6 7"? What rule does that follow?

Sorry Monk, my mistake. The OUTPUT should be in the below format :

 OUTPUT
@ranges = ("1:3","5:7","9");
