use Math::BaseCnv;

You have a base20 system in the mayan symbols. So assign each symbol a number in a hash, then convert your numbers to base 20, and retreive the symbol from the hash.

Whether the mayans counted with a pure base20 system, I don't know, but you try it and see.

10 fingers, 10 toes, makes sense for a counting system. :-)
