### Input and Output

say hashcountingstring($ARGV[0]);


### Implementation

# Collect hash positions from end and insert hash signs.
sub hashcountingstring ($n) {
    join('#', reverse gather {
            take '';
            for (; $n > 0; $n -= length($n) + 1) {
                take $n x ($n > 1);
            }
        });
}


### Examples and tests

    SKIP: {
        skip "examples" unless $examples;
        is hashcountingstring(1), '#', 'example a';
        is hashcountingstring(2), '2#', 'example b';
        is hashcountingstring(3), '#3#', 'example c';
        is hashcountingstring(10), '#3#5#7#10#', 'example d';
        is hashcountingstring(14), '2#4#6#8#11#14#', 'example e';
    }

    SKIP: {
        skip "tests" unless $tests;
        is hashcountingstring(11), '2#4#6#8#11#', '11';
        is hashcountingstring(12), '#3#5#7#9#12#', '12';
        is hashcountingstring(13), '#3#5#7#10#13#', '13';
