( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
A couple of minor golfish things, without really changing the algorithm:
sub ruler { my $n = 9 + shift; chop $n; join "", " ", map(" "x(9-/../).$_, 1..$n), "\n", "0123456789" x $n, "0\n" }
But for filling exactly to (arg) columns (eg, to avoid wrapping when using $ENV{COLUMNS}):
sub ruler { my $n = shift; join"", " ", map(" "x(9-/../).$_, 1..$n/10), "\n", map(/.$/g, 0..$n), "\n" }
update: or (of course) ye olde one-liner:perl -lwe 'print" ",map(" "x(9-/../).$_,1..$ARGV[0]/10),"\n",map/.$/g,0..shift' further update: chipmunk got it.  He's almost using printf as a map!

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
