Here's mine
$m=pop;for(1..$m-1){$n+=$m%$_?0:$_}print $n
43, if I understand the rules correctly. (First attempt at this... been
wanting to play since I read about it on /.)
Does anyone have any hints for someone new at this? It seems like a lot
of the golf relies on less-known side-effects. I'm wondering if someone
has started documenting the tricks. I'm going to need a few hints before
I'm able to read and comprehend some of the winning solutions I've seen so
far.
