in reply to Surprised by repetition (x) operator applied to a list
- This: ( [@list] ) x $nelts; says:
Construct an anonymous array with copies of @list as its content; and then replicate the reference to it $nelts times.
- This: map { [@list] } 1 .. $nelts; says:
Construct $nelts (different) anonymous arrays, that each contain copies of @list.
How would you do it?
I generally omit the block for that type of expression:
my @arr = map[ @list ], 1 .. $nelts;
