is guess_alphabet a predefined function in the following code?
my @counters = (); while (my $row = <$fh>) { my @cols = split /\s*-\s*/, $row; for (my $i = 0; $i < @cols; ++$i) { my $code = guess_alphabet($cols[$i]); ++$counters[$i]{$code}; } }
it was giving errors..
Yes, before that code there was this paragraph:
If an "alphabet" can have a stringfied representation, a code for example, and if given a $col we imagine for the sake of this followup a function that guesses $col's alphabet code:
my $code = guess_alphabet($col);
You have to plug there whatever you need according to the actual problem, guess_alphabet was a convenience imaginary subroutine to be able to depict the main algorithm in a few lines.
