in thread Render numeric sequence as array of letters

I believe this code has similar problems to my initial posting, which merlyn was quick to point out. If the @original_array contains one duplicate, for example, then the same grade is assigned for both, but one letter will be skipped in the process.

Just a heads up.

    True. 
    my @original_array = qw(5 100 2 8 8 40);

my @letter_seq = do {
     my %letter_for;
     @letter_for{@original_array} = ();
     @letter_for{sort { $a <=> $b } keys %letter_for} = ('A' .. 'Z');
     @letter_for{@original_array};
};
