WRT this reply:
grep {
croak "This doesn't look like start-end\n" unless /(.*)-(.*)/;
push @a, $1;
push @b, $2;
} @cidr;
I've seen map (mis)used in place of a for-loop before (although I've never understood the attraction of this unclean practice), but never grep. Purely to satisfy my idle curiosity, can anyone speculate on the rationale for this odd syntactic tic? Why not just
for (@cidr) {
croak "This doesn't look like start-end\n" unless /(.*)-(.*)/;
push @a, $1;
push @b, $2;
}

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).
