Well, uh thanks...
I really believe that obfuscation covers a lot of different topics...
- It's not only unreadable code or convoluted print statements
- The most interesting ways to obfuscate are probably not in
encrypting your code so that it's unreadable
- Obfuscated algorithms are very interesting (see the
many more than one way to do $A++,
for example)
- To me, "linguistic" constraints are so interesting
and I can't even comment on them ;-)
But by any means, don't do this at hom^W^Win production code...

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.
