Challenge accepted. For better or worse, I am using "math" when it comes to this problem (this problem clearly generalizes).

sub c{print"@{$_[0]} <=> @{$_[1]}: -/+1 if left/right heavier, 0 if eq +ual: ";<>} sub b{$_[0]<13?$_[0]:26-$_[0]} sub a{2>($_[0]+($_[0]>11))%4} sub d{sor +t{$a<=>$b} map b($_),grep{a($_)&&$_[1]==int($_%3**$_[0]/3**$_[0]*3)}1..25}$;+=3** +$_/3*(1+c( [d($_,0)],[d($_,2)]))for 1..3;print b($;)." is ".(a($;)?"heavi":"light +")."er\n";

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.
