This is geared more towards the beginner, to give him a chance to golf, but if you are more advanced and still want to post, than you can just post your code in a 'black box'.

The problem: Passed to your function is a list of numbers, and the function should return a list of those number's factorials. (factorial of 5 is 5*4*3*2*1).

Example:

@a = factorial(5); $a[0] = 120<br> @a = factorial(5,3,10); $a[0..2] = (120,6,3628800)

Again, this is meant for beggining to intermidately skilled programmers, but if you are better than that, you can see if you can beat my humble (and probably futile) atempt at the golf. (Click readmore to see my code).

sub f { push@a,eval join'*',1..$_ for@_;@a }

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.
