Re^2: Appending to a file.

in thread Appending to a file.

Reading about the tie:file makes some sense. It looks like the array addresses the memory location of the file and it works the same as an array. I don't have any clue what push, new recs...., pop, unshift, shift, or splice do.

Mitigating cluelessness.
That's what Perl's documentation is there for.

• push
• "new recs"? Perhaps you'd better re-read what puzzled you in the first place so you can quote it accurately.
• pop
• unshift
• shift
• ...and for splice... try Super Search with splice as your argument... or read a primer such as "Learning Perl."
