23:35 <****> nope i couldnt ive got le petit robert installed
23:36 <****> i thought in perl channel you could explain me what perl stands for
23:36 <****> perl doesn't stand for anything
23:36 <****> Perl
23:36 <****> then
23:36 <****> no, seriously
23:36 <****> Perl is the name of our favorite programming language.
23:36 <****> oh guys
23:36 <****> u know what i mean
23:37 <****> TrueFX: you can make up your own backronyms.
23:37 <****> pathologically eclectic or ecclesiastic rubbish lister
23:37 <****> eclectic.
23:42 <****> Hiya, coders
23:43 * CPAN upload: Math-Random-0.70 by GROMMEL
23:44 <****> "teknopagan" at 216.146.64.221 pasted "INPUT/OUTPUT" (58 lines, 1.3K) at http://sial.org/pbot/28031
23:44 <****> So, I'm trying to get the input from that paste parsed and calculated into the output in that paste
23:45 <****> what part are you having trouble with?
23:45 <****> The part about knowing perl. ;)
23:46 <****> heh
23:46 <****> I've been trying to get this right all week, using awk, but I can't seem to nail it down
23:46 <****> teknopagan: http://learn.perl.org/library/beginning_perl
23:47 <****> Thanks, PerlJam - I'll look at that on Monday
23:47 <****> looks doable with a one liner :)
23:48 <****> Think so? I have to leave the office in 6 minutes...
23:48 <****> I really hate to ask for spoonfeeding like this, but it's now a matter of image
23:48 <****> technically I am still working for another 9 ;)
23:49 <****> I've been talking about automating this for days, and if I can't get it done so the automatic email goes out on Monday morning, I'll look bad.
23:49 <****> teknopagan: hire a programmer.
23:50 <****> well you could at least have asked with more than 6 minutes available!
23:50 <****> Like I said, I've been trying to get this worked out for days using awk
23:50 <****> I'm just now coming around to trying perl instead
23:52 <****> I'd hire a programmer if it wasn't for something so small - and believe me, I'm not normally one to ask for handouts
23:52 <****> I'm only asking because I'm out of time
23:52 <****> If you can't help, it's no big deal - I can always fake this one
23:53 <****> heh we could though probably not in I guess 3 minutes now
23:53 <****> teknopagan: your "spec" leaves all sorts of questions unanswered. What's the biggest piece that's giving you trouble?
23:53 <****> =^_^=
23:54 <****> Like I said, I know nothing about perl - hell, I just started learning awk a week ago
23:54 <****> most of what I've done coding-wise is simple bash scripts
23:54 <****> rrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!
23:54 <****> time's up :)
23:56 <****>) { my ($date,$time,$action) = split; ... } # now go figure out how to use it :)
23:56 <****> it seems VAC gets treated as both an IN and an OUT ... annoying if you can take less than 8hr of vacation
23:57 <****> as long as the data is sorted as in/out pairs and you don't have to deal with swing or graveyard it looks easy.
23:57 <****> once the zombies come in you're toast.
23:59 <****> The VAC bit can be modified
