Re: [FWP] small(?) puzzler (misdirection)

Yes, i can see why that took a long time to find.  I wonder whether a 
beginning Perl programmer would have found it quicker, actually.  They 
might not have automatically read the mistake as a standard idiom (just the 
wrong one at the time).  There again, beginners (good ones) tend to look 
closely at everything to find meaning in it.

On the grounds of laziness, I use $_ where it saves the most typing, which 
would have been the inner loop in your case...
