The show my wife is currently performing in is Stephen Sondheim’s Assassins (my favorite Sondheim musical), so with the first task being “Broken Keyboard”, I needed to use Something Just Broke…
But everybody’s got the right to be happy, and this week, what makes me happy is Perl Weekly Challenge 341.
Each week, I’m playing word association with the tasks to pick the musical theme. Originally, this started because one of the tasks was literally a line from a musical. This week, Perl Weekly Challenge 340 was more difficult with the tasks “Duplicate Removals” and “Ascending Numbers”.
But it didn’t take long. I couldn’t think of anything with “duplicate” in it, but “ascending” made me think of “rising”, and I landed on David Roth‘s Rising in Love.
With Perl Weekly Challenge 339 being “Max Diff” and “Peak Point”, I started to think that “Point” was my hook into a musical theme, and that made me think of one of my favorite artists, David Wilcox. So please enjoy his song Turning Point while we solve this week’s tasks…
Perl Weekly Challenge 338: “Highest Row” and “Max Distance”…
Let’s have some fun!
With Perl Weekly Challenge 337 being Smaller Than Current and an Odd Matrix, I figured I’d dig into my collection and pull out a track called Odd Ones on the Kanno Yōko (菅野 よう子) Cowboy Bebop soundtrack mini-album, Vitaminless.
So with the music out of the way, let’s do some odd programming and knock off PWC337.
