I knew there was way to use $| for a toggle, but for some 
reason I couldn't figure it out last night.  That and filling 
the empty squares with 0s initially are the sort of creativity 
I was hoping for.

Unfortunately, you're missing the spaces between columns and 
(unless you're using -l) the newline at the end.
