call me old fashion but I like the expressed assertion

        my @list = split(/\s+/, $line);

and for fun you can play with

Ok, so nesting autonomous hashes and a function rather than having
to write explicit code may not be everyone's cup of tea - but I
think it also works as a way to play the game.
