John,
I would like to know if i understood this line clear.
while (1) { print $e[ ($i %= @e)++ ], "\b"; }
so modulo's values are 0 then 1 then 2 then 0 (tehn loops back again).
This will make it loop and print the 4 values of my array.
is this applicable for all arrays with unlimited number of elements?
how about auto flush? what does it do?
rgds,
nix

my @e = qw( | \ - / );
$| = 1; # turn on autoflush
my @e = qw( \ - / | );
my $i = 0;
while (1) {
print $e[ ($i %= @e)++ ], "\b";
