I like merlyn's answer because it's readable, even by people who are not hardcore perl programmers. It's not tricky, but it doesn't need to be.

    Actually I disagree quite strongly. Its readable by people with a C background (ie who are used to the while() loops being disguised as for() loops) but to people who come from other backgrounds (such as Pascal) I think the above would cause some palpatations on first reading.
