Hello Perl Folks,<br><br>
Over the last little while some of my Perl acquaintances, friends (rivals?) and I have become utterly addicted to a great (non-profit) site hosted by the <em>The Department of Algorithms and System Modelling</em> at the <em>Gdansk University of Technology</em>.<br><br>They have set up a testing ground for people to submit algorithms in many different languages (Most importantly, Perl!) and be automatically judged based on some pre-set criteria. The problems are mainly geared to algorithms with a focus on speed and memory usage but there are some golf problems (which Perl seems to dominate unchallenged) and all-around brain-twisters.<br><br>Some of us have found some very good and interesting solutions in Perl and thought it would be nice if we could have more representation at the site.<br><br>If you're interested, check it out at <a href="http://spoj.sphere.pl/">Sphere Online Judge</a><br><br>
Hope to see you there,<br><br>
Matt<br>
