Cheap japh. I didn't know that dotted numbers did this.
eval 112.114.105.110.116.32.55.52.46.49.49.55.46.49.49.53.46.49.49.54. +46.51.50.46.57.55.46.49.49.48.46.49.49.49.46.49.49.54.46.49.48.52.46. +49.48.49.46.49.49.52.46.51.50.46.56.48.46.49.48.49.46.49.49.52.46.49. +48.56.46.51.50.46.49.48.52.46.57.55.46.57.57.46.49.48.55.46.49.48.49. +46.49.49.52;
Cheerio!

    You've stumbled upon the relatively new version (or vector) strings While canonicaly represented with a leading 'v' (i.e. v112.114) you may omit the v if there is more than one period (112.114.105) Version strings are new as of 5.6.0 - or more to the point, v5.6.0 ;-)

    This produced no output for me either pasted to perl STDIN or run as a script. I added a print in front just to check if I was missing something and the result was not japh like.

    perl version 5.005_03

    What am I missing?

    -monkfish (The Fishy Monk)

      I checked and it also works on my home PC. (perl v5.6.0 on Win32)

      Only thing I can think of is: the code should all be on one line (if you cut and paste from above it will include some newlines and '+' characters: I tried that and it gave no output.)

      If that's the case try clicking d/l code to download the code instead. (and if that doesn't work let me know!)

      Cheerio!
