sub quant{
# 14 characters, but I am bad at this, I'm sure it can get shorter
int((shift)*8)
}
Update:
Hah. I made the same mistake as LanX above. It works up to 8/9, then it fails.
sub quant{ int((shift)*8) }
for ( 1 .. 9 ) {
print "$_ => ", quant( ($_/9) - 0.0001 ), "\n";
}
1 => 0
2 => 1
3 => 2
4 => 3
5 => 4
6 => 5
7 => 6
8 => 7
9 => 7 // BOOM!
What do we learn? Test all cases :-)

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).
