Yeah, I've been following the thread and had figured out on my own that I was off base.

Interesting puzzle. I can figure out a solution but trying to duplicate the steps my brain took to solve this and then translating those steps into Perl is beyond me. Actually, trying to figure out how (or if) my brain works is more than enough challenge for anyone.

Anyway, I'll be interested to find out if anyone manages to solve this one - and if their program comes up with the same solution I did.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
