Nice Idea to precompute the values.

I got 3901 which represents the entire set of 2-4 letter long unsorted inputs in this alphabet. This of course folds to a very small number of sorted outcomes.

Here is the code.

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; my(%pp); my(@acgnt)=( ' ', 'A', 'C', 'G', 'N', 'T' ); my($i); for($i=11;$i<100000;$i++) { my($s, $o, @s); while($i =~ /6/) { $o=index(reverse($i),'6'); $i+=5*10**$o; } $s=sprintf "%04d", $i; @s=split('',$s); @s = map { $acgnt[$_] } @s; $s=join('', @s); $s =~ y/ //d; $pp{$s}=join('', sort(@s)); } #print out the lookup table (not really part of the initializer) my($k, $v); while(($k,$v)=each %pp) { print "$k = $v\n"; }

This creates a complete list of inputs you could obtain and builds a hash with the outputs you want to display. It does this fairly quickly and would only have to be done at startup time and then your print statement would bacically be print "$pp{$_}\n";

This could be made into an initializer function or the values could be computed and saved out and then read in for execution of the real program.

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
