Re: not able to get the output using split function

in reply to not able to get the output using split function

Your code:

my $sentence = shift;

will pick up the FIRST argument passed-in.

Your test probably looked something like:

>perl myprogram i amd testing this.

and it picked-up just the "i".

There are two possible fixes:
1. Add quotes to the argument, like this:

>perl myprogram "i amd testing this."

2. Programattically capture ALL passd arguments:

my $sentence = join " ",@ARGV;

If you notice, @ARGV already contains the same information as @words for this case, so split is unnecessary.
