Actualy, what you did is not a hash, but three scalars - and yes, that would work. To
use a hash SLICE local to the subroutine, you would do it like this:
sub sonic
{
my %lh;
@lh{qw(numhits maxhits hits)} = @_;
...
}
After that, you could refer to the values locally as:
$lh{numhits}
$lh{maxhits} and
$lh{hits}
Just a note. Your method would work, but it was not a hash.

Subject: RE: passing values to sub
I'm just a beginnner BUT why not use HashRef for the @hits array to make
all data going to sub sonic a scalar values
Then sub sonic would be...
sub sonic
{
my ($numhits, $maxhits, $hits) = @_;
...
}
YOu would just need to deference the reference.

sub sonic
{
my ($numhits, $maxhits, @hits) = @_;
