note kcott <p>G'day [kingpin007],</p> <p>Welcome to the monastery.</p> <p> I see [NetWallah]++ has provided the answer to your posted question. Here's a couple of additional points. </p> <p> Your shebang line needs to start with <c>#!</c>, not <c>!#</c>. I suspect this is simply a typo but if you run this code you'll get the (possibly rather cryptic) message: <em>"Can't modify not in scalar assignment"</em>. </p> <p> When you have sequences of numbers, you can use the range operator (<c>..</c>). Instead of <c>qw(1 2 3 4 5 10 11 12 13 14)</c>, you can just type <c>(1 .. 5, 10 .. 14)</c>. This is described in [http://perldoc.perl.org/perlop.html#Range-Operators|perlop - Range Operators]. </p> <!-- Node text goes above.
