in reply to
print the array using command line arguements
The problem in your code is the line my @new = @array[join(",",@ARGV)]; because the first element of @ARGV is the program name Fengor writes a 100 times ksh is not perl
try
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my @array = ( 11,12,13,14,15);
#my @new = @array[join(",",@ARGV)];
#my @new = @array[1,3];
my @new = @array[$ARGV[0],$ARGV[1]];
print "@new\n";
