I don't not understand how the $#{$array_r} returns "highest" element as 4 and not 5???
$#arrayname returns the highest INDEX in the array -- that means it returns the location of the last element in the array. If your array has 10 elements, $#array returns 9, because $array[9] is the 10th element.
There is no variable that is magically the highest value in an array. -- Jeff "japhy" Pinyan % How can we ever be the sold short or RPI Acacia Brother #734 % the cheated, we who for every service http://japhy.perlmonk.org/ % have long ago been overpaid? http://www.perlmonks.org/ % -- Meister Eckhart -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
