Conversion to [Perl](https://www.perl.org/)
|
|
|
|
## Conversion
|
|
|
|
Not a difficult conversion - but a chance to throw in a few ways
|
|
Perl makes life easy.
|
|
|
|
* To get the sub permission which is a random location in the g x g x g grid we can use:
|
|
* assigning multiple variables in list form ($a,$b,$c) = (?,?,?)
|
|
* where the list on the right hand side is generated with a map function
|
|
|
|
* We use ternarys to generate the message if you miss the sub.
|
|
* We use join to stitch the pieces of the string together.
|
|
* If we have a ternary where we don't want to return anything we return an empty list rather than an empty string - if you return the latter you still get the padding spaces.
