Try running this script, I hope it is self-explanatory, if not, please ask!
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Test::More;
# I need to print a blank in a file if the price field is
# less than 55.
is output(54,'title'), "\n";
is output(54,'electric'), "\n";
# I also need the output to be blank if the price field is
# greater than 55 but the title field contains the word "electric."
is output(56,'the electric title'), "\n";
# If the item is greater than 55 without the word electric
# in the title, I need the phrase "free_batteries" to be output.
is output(56,'title'), "free_batteries\n";
# what about these two?
is output(55,'title'), "free_batteries\n";
is output(55,'electric'), "\n";
sub output {
my $price = shift;
my $title = shift;
if ( $price < 55 || $title =~ /electric/ ) {
return "\n"
}
else {
return "free_batteries\n";
}
}
done_testing;

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
