The only purpose of this code is for the learning ability, in patching up a syntax error, and getting a code letter out of it (from a series of programs, a certain code will be found for something else). This program (I patched the error so no one will point it out ;)) will generate the letter "u".

Now I know there is alot of useless garbage in the program, but that is the point -- I don't want the person to just look at a statement like 'print "u";', but throw something in there to make it look 'bigger' than it actually is... and yes, I know there is a commented line reguarding a random call -- that was on purpose.

Anyway, as I said, this is for the purpose of finding an error in a piece of code, fixing it, and running it to obtain something. Here is the final result that is being used: 
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

my @a = 'a'..'z';

my $b = $a[19];

&blah();

srand('5' ^ my $blah1);
my @c=split(/ */, "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz");
my $a = $c[20];
for(my $i = 0) {
     @c = $c[20];#!/\^s/[int(rand(20))]/\^s/; 
     print "Good job!\n\nCode Letter: @c"; 
}

sub blah { 
     my $blah = "a c e g i k m o q s u w y"; 
     my @blah = split(/ /, $blah); 
     my $i = -1; 
     foreach $blah(@blah) { 
          $i++; 
          delete $blah[$i] unless $i eq 2 || $i eq 4 || $i eq 6; 
     } 
     $blah = join('', $b,$blah[4],$blah[6],$blah[2]); 
     @blah = $blah; 
     $blah1 = @blah; 
}
