I am stupid for thinking that creating JAPH's was simple as baking a NodeReaper cherry pie. I was dead wrong. So I tried my hand at making a rather large (unfortunately,) JAPH, which is in fact, my first attempt. I didn't look at any other JAPH code, to create it, and it does in fact, look different, if you run the code. Hopefully the letters of the JAPH will look more creative than just the plain lettering does, but anyhow. Here is the code:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;  my @a = qw(j a p h); my ($n,$s,$t) = ("\n"," ","\t");  fo
+r (my $x=0; $x<=10; $x++) { print $s x5,$a[0]x$x; print $s x5,$a[1]x$
+x; print $s x5,$a[2]x$x; if ($x <= 6) { if ($x == 1) { print $a[2]x9;
+ } elsif ($x == 6) { print $a[2]x9; } else{ print $s x5,$a[2]x$x; } }
+ if ($x == 6) { print $s x6,$a[3]x$x; } elsif ($x > 6) { print $s x14
+,$a[3]x$x; } else { print $s x5,$a[3]x$x; } print $s x9,$a[3]x$x; pri
+nt $n; }  my $w=13;  for (my $x=0; $x<=3; $x++) { print $s x$x,$a[0]x
+$w; print $s x6,$a[1]x3; if ($x == 1) { print $a[1]x9; } else { print
+ $s,$s,$s x3,$a[1]x3; } print $s x6,$a[2]x8; print $s x13,$a[3]x12; i
+f ($x == 1) { print $a[3]x18; } else { print $s x7,$a[3]x12; } print 
+$n; $w-=3; }

Hopefully it isn't that dumb for my first one... it is different, but rather long winded, and hopefully if I create another one someday, I will shorten it a lot, to produce a similar JAPH.
