Hi PerlMonks,
I am interested to create a folder B in D drive of computer and
then save results in a text file (Result_File.txt) inside B folder
using perl. For this I have written the following script p5.pl but
the cmd has shown an error. I am at my wit's end to find a solution. I
searched in perldoc but couldn't find the code applicable in my case.
I can't make out what the technical term perlIO layer really means
in the error message in cmd. May I request PerlMonks to provide
suggestions in this matter?
Here goes the script p5.pl:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
my $a=9; my $b=5; my $c=$a*$b;
## Create the folder B in D drive & Save results as Result_File.txt
# within B folder:
my $output="Result_File.txt";
open (my $fh,">D://B/",$output) or die"Cannot open file'$output'.\n";
+# Line 10
print $fh "\n WELCOME! Product of 9 & 5= $c\n\n";
close $output;
exit;
Here goes the error message in cmd screen:
C:\Users\x\Desktop>p5.pl
Unknown PerlIO layer "D" at C:\Users\x\Desktop\p5.pl line 10.
Cannot open file'Result_File.txt'.

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).
