Re^4: print +split

[drock]

Chas.... I understand now... my bad. Anyway it is printing the two elements of not computing the difference.

root@stkv440-srvA [ / ]-> perl /usr/local/bin/ohiohealth/filecp_chk.OH
+.pl
64696

64684

Difference is: 64696 - 64684

I got it... I was a matter interpolation in my print statement. THANK YOU CHAS!!!! : ) Have a nice week!

You 're welcome!
I didn't see your print statement, but I'm sure I know what you mean. *Actually, you can imbed function calls within strings, although it isn't necessary here.* Look at:

$diff[1]=62622;
$diff[2]=62535;
print $diff[1]-$diff[2],"\n";
print "$diff[1]-$diff[2]\n";
print "@{[$diff[1]-$diff[2]]}\n";
