That's the one. I swear I tried that (at least twice!), but ... Many thanks++. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

My goodness it took me a while to get that one! Other slow brains like mine can have a look at this grep tutorial (where hashes are incremented): http://www.hidemail.de/blog/perl_tutor.shtml Also have a look a the PM node Re: How do I un-map this code?	[reply]

Big bug Just found it when I was examining kyle's solution. swap p and q and your routine will fail! Sorry! Not a bug! My mistake! `s$$([},&%#}/&/]+}%&{});#$&&s&&$^X.($'^"%]=\&(\|?{%` `+`.+=%;.#_}\&"^"-+%*).}%:##%}={~=~:.")&e&&s""`$''`"e	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I noticed that your solution is symmetric because it has the `abs` in it. However I was taking BrowserUk by the word: "those in the first not in the second". Given the restriction "one a proper subset of the other", it does not matter, and our solutions print essentially the same elements (maybe in a different order).	[reply] [d/l]
