I think (-ugene was the only golfer eulogized at YAPC::Europe, cited in the "Dark Art of Obfuscation" talk (http://domm.zsi.at/talks/obfu_yapc2002/): Example (from perlgolf, TPR(0,5a) ... # Eugene van der Pijll -p sub w{s/ ([@_^+-])(.*)/ $2 $1/g}sub f{s/\(([^()]+)\)/f($_=$+)/e?&f:w~w;$_}f s/\s//g/s/\d+/$& /g I wasn't at the talk but I heard the audience gave Mad Dutch and his genius solution a spontaneous standing ovation. I love this observation about Perl Golf from this talk: "Obfuscation is neither the goal nor required, but hard to avoid."
Did any golfers attend YAPC::Europe? I wonder what is the most obfuscated Perl Golf entry. Rick's "clearly insane" solution from (-ugene's Coca-Kola tourney? Michael "my hero" Thelen's "absolute obfuscation" theme in Juho's Infix to RPN match? /-\ndrew
