I don't think there is one. You can maintain a counter for this purpose
though.
my $counter;
for (@answer) {
#do something ...
print "On element index $counter\n";
$counter++;
}

Subject: iteration default variable
Hi there,
This is probably a simple one...
in a loop like this:
for (@answer) {
#do something ...
}
I understand that for each iteration of the loop, $_ contains the value of
$answer[current iteration].
But is there a default variable I can use to get the current index value?
Can't seem to find the answer anywhere... any ideas would be helpful.
Thanks everybody for contributing to this list... I find it useful.
Thanks
Mike Kavanagh
