Ah, ha! Now I see from reading back over yesterday's posts that this version has to be invoked only from the command line and only with a string on that line. All systems go.

Thanks,

As you mentioned gsf....

the puzzle has to be introduced as you demonstrated on the command line....

Not from file .....

The result can be outputted to file (although only 1 result) if you follow the 81 character line puzzle by "> filename"

happy hunting

And if you simply want to see the result before the window snaps closed, add a final command line, pause.

Let battle commence (but not this weekend),

ED = 9.5/9.5/3.4

the puzzle in question had ED=9.5/9.5/3.0
so yes, 9.5/9.5/3.4 trumps 9.5/9.5/3.0
