Re: Re (tilly) 1: (Golf) Nearest Neighbors

OK, a couple of simple typographic manipulations to bring it to 55:

sub nn {
()=sort{abs$a-$b>abs$_[0]-$_[1]or@_=($a,$b);$a-$b}@_;@_
}

(There are advantages to being slow (or having no time!)).  I was still up over 80 strokes with my sort-based solution when I looked up and saw this guy casually strolling past Tiger Woods.
