the way that the quoted article creates Perl programs is through OCRing the inkblots (i.e. creating almost random text) and then checking that result to see if said text is valid Perl
it's not generating a program that means anything
Okay, and I created inkblots that mean "numbers"[1] and "strings" in Python.
