Yep, quite 13 can't be right.
Let's change my algorithm from:
my %timings;
$timings{$_}++ for (3 .. 5, 4 .. 10, 15 .. 20);
my $total_time = scalar values %timings;
to:
my %timings;
$timings{$_}++ for (4 .. 5, 5 .. 10, 16 .. 20);
my $total_time = scalar values %timings;
(The scalar statement is in fact not really needed,
but I find it more readable so :-))
Done.
Cheerio,
Janek
