in reply to Benchmarking
in thread something about improving code...

This was exactly the point of my previous post. Thank you for running a benchmark. I'd be interested in comparing the efficiency of the .. range operator vs using the flip flop method (inlined rather then as a subroutine). After all, this whole thread is about efficiency.

BTW: for those people interested in benchmarking methods, there is a great post called Benchmarking your code written up by turnstep.

    I wanted to benchmark the golf game, too, but as it all uses a while on a filehandle, I didn't see a way to do it without inserting other factors.

    Anybody know how to do this?
