in reply to Golf: Back to those damn beer bottles again...
Oooh - that's a fun squeeze. I missed the last lot, so I thought I'd join in here. Even on the 99 bottles site, opinion seems to be divided as to whether it's "Take one down, pass it around" or "Take one down *and* pass it around" - 3 bytes is important in this game....:) Anyway, here's a gramamatically correct one weighing in at 156 bytes with the 'and'.
Maybe there should be an ISO '99 bottles' standard to establish these important questions of 'and' or ',', 'No' or '0', plurals, CRs etc.. :)$n=99;warn $b=&b,$w=" on the wall",", $b,\nTake one down and pass it a +round,\n".&b(--$n)."$w.\n"while$n;sub b{$s=$n-1?'s':'';($n||'No')." b +ottle$s of beer"}
