[Purdue-pm] Pascal's triangle

Given I have not spent any time looking at it, at first glance:
sub pascal { [1], -> @p { [0, @p Z+ @p, 0] } ... * };

troubles me greatly.

That line of code is totally un-readable, and therefore completely
useless to 95% or more of the population (that's a very scientific
number, pulled right out of ..)

People, even Larry Wall (praise be upon him), should NOT EVER code like this.
