( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Hi jettero:

Indeed, it looks like batcater98 is making progess. To my eye, the output file shown above looks like it could be a straight dump of the output from either my or imp's recent attempts to help batcater98 solve their problem.

Oh how nice it would've been to have the full spec up front, so that either imp or I could have added this simple addition! Instead, it seems like poor batcater98 has taken one of those referenced programs, run it to produce an output file, and is trying to write another program to produce these (relatively trivial to add) additional results.

Your simple loop code above would definitely cut the mustard for the spec presented above, but perhaps it would be a Better solution overall to shoehorn something that would fit the spec into the previous solution batcater98 has (apparently without much gratitude) decided to use.

Update: Just wanted to make it clear that though I was replying to jettero, it was not my intention to berate him, as I feared that the phrase I updated might indicate.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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.
