Hi! I'm still wallowing in Chapter 3 (Arrays. Why can't I get it?!?!?!? ARGH!!!!!) of Learning Perl on Win32 Systems. I'm trying to create an exercise but I'm not getting the results that I want. Here's what I'm trying to do:
I'm asking for a list of names: print "Name your friends: "; @names = <STDIN>; Then I want to pretend that I know the one of the friends. In this case, I'll choose the 2nd one and here's where I'm not getting what I want: print "I know $names[1].\n"; The output shows "I know ." Isn't "$names[whatever]" what I'm supposed to use to get an element of the array? I've tried this with numbers and have gotten the same results. What am I doing wrong?
