[Perl Golf] Round 1
One sentence can contain one or more strings next to each-other, which can be joined to make another word. e.g.: to get her == together an other == another where about == whereabouts etc Solve this problem using as few lines of code as possible[1]. Good luck! [1] Don't use external non-default libraries; non-custom word-lists excepted -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

If your intention is to propose a challenge, say so, and state the associated problem clearly. But this really misses the point. Python is not about coming up with some clever, cryptic, one-liner to solve some problem. It's about clear code.

You're only allowed to bash him for one-liners as soon as he formulates something that in some way or another resembles a programming challenge, and not some incoherent listing of words without actual intent... ;-) -- --- Heiko. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Nah, one-liners are fun. Look, here's a Python one-liner that
generates a month's worth of emails:
t = ('a', [23]); t[1] += [42]
