Round 1, 2 minutes
sub h{pop=~/(?:\w+\W*){4}(\w+)/}
Round 2, 15 sec
print STDERR"Can't find label TPC at -e line 5."
Round 3, 5 mins, Should probably use /s and \z but that's 2 extra chars
sub f{pop=~/^(.*?)\1+$/}
Round 4, 6 mins performance level inversly proportional to level of red in bottle
sub h{$_=pop;s/(..)/chr hex $1/eg;(/../g)}
Round 5, Back on form, 2 minutes
sub g{$m=pop;map{$m=$_ if $_>$m}@_;$m}
Round6, Took too damn long!
sub v{sort{eval'$a=~/([aeiou])/;$1'cmp eval'$b=~/([aeiou])/;$1'}@_}
Please sir can I have some more?

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).
