Here is a micro-optimized, version of AnonyMonk's code (just because it was fun).
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; for (1..6){ print_dice2($_); }; #------------------------------ sub print_dice2{ my $value = shift or die $!; my @DICE = ( 0, 0x020, # Use 3 bits per hex digit, and 3 hex digits 0x401, # to represent one printed line 0x421, # of the die face. 0x505, 0x525, 0x555 ); print "---------\n"; for (8,4,0) { #Choose each Hex digit, Left-to-right my $line = $DICE[$value] >> $_; # Low 4-bits now contain the inf +o print '| ', # Now, pick each bit, L-to-R, and print map({$line & 1 << $_ ? "#" : " "," " } (2,1,0) ), "|\n"; } print "---------\n"; };
