Misread :(
my %lookup = map { $_ => 1 << (ord($_) - ord('A')) } 'A'..'Z';
my $c = 'ABCHI';
my $bitmap = 0;
$bitmap |= $lookup{$_} for $c =~ /(.)/g;
print('A'..'Z', "\n");
print(scalar(reverse(sprintf("%26b", $bitmap))), "\n");
outputs
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
111000011
Update: Array version:
my @powers = map { 1 << $_ } 0..25;
my $c = 'ABCHI';
my $bitmap = 0;
$bitmap |= $powers[ord($_)-ord('A')] for $c =~ /(.)/g;
print('A'..'Z', "\n");
print(scalar(reverse(sprintf("%26b", $bitmap))), "\n");
Update: Replaced += with |=. It makes it tolerant to repeated letters.

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).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
