Here’s my wordle, with my name removed. All my posts contain my name, so it was among the largest of words! I couldn’t look conceded, now could I?

So I submitted a post to perlmonks RE: all the 'history meme' brouhaha. I provided two one liners in Perl (Below) and asked for people to improve/shorten/spice up the 'history meme' via Perl. We'll see how that goes :).

So, here's what I gave them to start with:

history | perl -le 'while($l = <>) 
{$n=${[split(/s+/,$l)]}[2];$h{$n}++;} $i=0;foreach $k 
(reverse sort {$h{$a}<=>$h{$b}} keys %h) {last if $i > 9; print "$h{$k} $k"; $i++;}'

history | perl -le 'while($l = <>) ;
{$n=${[split(/s+/,$l)]}[2];$h{$n}++;} $i=0;@a=reverse 
sort {$h{$a}<=>$h{$b}} keys %h; print "$h{$a[$_]} $a[$_]" for (0..9)'
