Excuse my ignorance, total newbie... What is the relation between: a) this list b) the perl golf tournament that just had the vowels/letters hole c) the perl golf tournament that currently is doing hamming codes d) the perl golf tournament that did magic squares a few weeks back ?
I'd like to know for several reasons: 1) Why are the gods of perl-golf not 'members' in the hamming code one, where I, who has no affiliation to anything, am a member? 2) In 2 days time, I'm going to want some pointers from the gurus on the no doubt obvious tweaks that I could make to my hamming entry - is this the place for such discussions? I must admit that I find the skill and tenacity of most people in these tournaments to be absolutely _frightening_. I can't even begin to understand half of the tricks used presently! (In particular the shortest ones and the artistic ones.)
