That would be easy enough in perl and python as well,
but it wouldn't do well at inferring blank entries, while something
that determines column boundaries based on the position of the one's digit
in each entry could.
I guess any algorithm would then lead to mention of
special cases that it doesn't handle, but this is a start.
Thanks!
