Re^2: Name "main::a" used only once: possible typo

or

reduce { our $a * our $b } 1 .. 6;

[szabgab]

I'd probably put the our ($a,$b) outside of that block, but this is what I had in mind. I was just interested in more options. - Thanks

out ($a, $b);
reduce { $a * $b } 1 .. 6;

[AnomalousMonk]

I was just interested in more options.

This is kind of old-school and amounts to the same thing as sticking an  our ($a, $b); statement somewhere, but it's another option:

>perl -wMstrict -le
"use List::Util qw/reduce/;
 use vars qw($a $b);
 ;;
 print reduce { $a * $b } 1..6;
"
