I know the ruby community does a weekly quiz, and I think at least one

Here's another fun one: print a bar graph (optionally text-only) of letter
frequency for any given input text file. We made that one of the first
programming labs in the data security class -- I think the longest of the
entries was over 250 lines of Java or C# code. In class we got one down to,
IIRC, 5 (short) lines of perl.
