Why don't you ask your teacher instead? This gives you a great opportunity to show you care about the class and it puts a face on your homework when it comes time to grade it.

    Thank you everyone but I did ask my teacher. 

    if ($a == $i && $b == $h && $c == $g && $d == $f)    #Final configurat
+ion to tell if it is a palindrome
{
print "PALINDROME!";
}
else
{
print "NOT A PALINDROME!";
}

    That was all i needed to do. I overthought the assignment.

      print "\nThis program asks for you to \n
enter any nine character sequence and \n
then tells you if it is a palidrome!\n\n";

      Hmm, so the program asks for a character sequence, and you end up using numercal equasions. That will yield a whole lot of palidromes (and warnings if you did use warnings)

      say $a eq $i && $b eq $h && $c eq $g && $d eq $f ? "PALINDROME!" : "No
+t a PALINDROME!";

      much simpler:

      $user eq reverse $user and say "You entered a PALINDROME!";

      Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

      I don't see the chop you originally said the teacher wanted you to use.

      And are you sure the teacher didn't say chomp?
