Re: TIMTOWTDI/golf - counting backwards

Using hex seems to be an abuse of the rules, but what the heck: gotta start golfing sometime. At 30 characters:

#23456789_123456789_123456789_
$_=hex a;print$_--,"\n"while$_
[download]

Update: juerd pointed out that I can't count. Fixed. (I was claiming 34 characters.)
blakem's hint brings me down to 28 characters

#23456789_123456789_12345678
$_=hex a;print$_--,$/while$_
[download]

setenv EXINIT 'set noai ts=2'
