Hello monks!

I need to take the @count array and turn it into the following @result array.

@count: 1 3 1 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 3 2

@result: 0 1 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 7 8 9 10 10 10 11 11

Each element in @count is the number of times to repeat the number in @result starting at 0. 0 occurs once, 1 occurs 3 times, 2 occurs once, etc. The problem is once I get to double digits I get this result.

@count: 1 3 1 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 3 2

@result: 0 1 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 7 8 9 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 <- Wrong!

for (my $i=0; $i <= $#count; $i++) {
    push(@result, split("", $i x $count[$i]));
}

print "\@count: @count\n";
print "\@result: @result\n";

I understand why it isn't working, but I've tried everything I can think of to fix it yesterday and today, and still can't find the solution. Any help is appreciated.
