simpzoid has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Dear All, I am looking to create an array like this:

my @arry = ("a","b","c","d","e","f","g","h","i","j","k","l","m","n","o","p","q","r","s","t","u","v","w","x","y","z","0","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9");

but am struggling to find a shorthand way of doing this. Surely there must be a way of doing this with character classes.
