Yay! I always wanted to do that. Actually, it's funny that I was able to do
it now... during TPR(0,4), I wanted to do exactly this (create hash keys with
undef values using a hash slice), but I wasn't able to come up with this little
reference trick.
Now if only I could get rid of the space in that 20 solution. I've come up
with a couple other 20s:
20 print\@h{<>}&&sort%h
20 print!\@h{<>},sort%h (not sure why this works, so maybe it doesn't:)
