( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Maintaining the same order between values and keys should mean you can depend on keys returning the same order each time, otherwise how is values supposed to know which order to present its order?

my @keys1 = keys %some_hash; my @keys2 = keys %some_hash; #different from @keys1? my @values = values %some_hash; # same order as @keys1 or same as @key +s2?
That makes it look pretty dependable to me, assuming: a) same process (or a fork of it), and b) hash otherwise unchanged between the two calls to keys.

Personally, I only rely on the order when I'm doing something like @hash2{keys %hash1} = values %hash1;, otherwise I don't think I ever rely on the order from keys (if I care, I sort them) or values (there's no real way to sort values the same as sorting keys anyway), so I doubt I'm affected, but only one way to find out. :-)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
