## Usage: witchtest.pl <"Full Name Of Accused Woman">
## Example: witchtest.pl "Jane M. Doe"
##
## WitchTest implements a 1692 Salem-compliant witch determination 
## algorithm. As a helpful aid to the user, it also suggests what 
## should be done with said witch, if detected.
##
## Note: This particular implementation of the algortihm assumes 
## that no trial is necessary.

$suspectedWitch=$ARGV[0];
$witchStatus="";

{
  $witchStatus=1;
}
else
{
  $witchStatus=1;
}


if ($witchStatus)
{
  print "\nWitchTest: $suspectedWitch hath been determin'd a witch!\n"
+;
  print "WitchTest: Set light to her! She must be hast'ly burnt at the
+ stake before she hath tyme to further her evil crafte.\n\n";
