hello monks!
i have a problem parsing a hash into a sub
new_packages($fcount,%new_db);
sub new_packages {
my %packages = $_[1];
print "Found $_[0] packages for download: $_\n" if ($fcount > 1);
print "Found $_[0] package for download: $_\n" if ($fcount == 1);
print "Which one would you like to install?:\n";
foreach my $key (keys (%packages)) {
print "$key) $packages{$key} \n"
}
}
i get the following error:
Odd number of elements in hash assignment at ./slackup.pl line 49.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at ./slackup
+.pl line 50.
Found 3 packages for download:
Which one would you like to install?:
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at ./slackup
+.pl line 54.
1)
the hash has these values:
%new_db = (1 => 'gedit-2.2.2-i386-1.tgz',
2 => 'ppp-3.4.1-i386-2.tgz')
where is my mistake i cant figure out!?
atnonis!

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).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
