in reply to variable as hash name
PLEASE, don't tell me I dont want to do this. I want to do exactly what I said above. Not to use hash of hashes or anything else. I DO want to use a variable as a hash name and I'm aware of the risks.To help you understand why you've copped a few downvotes, it would have been more polite to explain up front why you want to use symbolic references, rather than to issue a command to the unpaid volunteers who answer questions here. Understanding the why behind your question makes it more interesting for us and makes it more likely that others who read this node in the future will learn from it (this topic is discussed in more detail at the XY Problem). Please remember that this site is a community of Perl programmers, a community that encourages everyone to grow and learn from each other.
Anyway, welcome to the monastery. If you become involved in Perl monks, not just asking for help, but answering the questions of others, you should have a lot of fun and your Perl will improve out of sight.
