Re: Keyed matrix

in reply to Keyed matrix

That is a very "unPerl" idea ( that 3 by 7 array). Perhaps your Perl instructor doesn't understand Perl or perhaps you don't understand the assignment. Ask a question about how to accomplish a general task and you will get a lot of help.

Update:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

#Ok, here is an idea for you...

my %scores = ( "Monday"    => ["dishes","1"], 
               "Tuesday"   => ["vacuum","2"], 
               "Wednesday" => ["garbage","3"],
             );

print "@{$scores{Wednesday}}\n";
__END__
Prints:
garbage 3
