Basically, all I'm doing is running it as

> script.pl 6 20

The 6 being @ARGV[0] for the purpose of generating the random numbers and the 20 being $ARGV[1] and for how many numbers to generate. The computer is my system at work. I'll have to log in tomorrow sometime to get the dump that you asked for.

As for the simplification, thanks for the suggestion. I have no doubt that there are numerous places I could optimize my code.
