I am just starting out teaching myself Perl from books and web resources so I 
apologise if my questions seems a little straight forward but I was hoping to 
ask here to get clarification and so I hope my simple questions do not annoy 
you all and that I have the right forum for these questions  :)
 
I am trying to initialise an array with certain characters in it to then match 
to user input but the '£' symbol is coming up in the comparison as a funny 
looking 'u symbol with a squiggle above.  Is this due to me being inept at 
programming or my PC not understanding the pound sign?  
 
I am using a simple: @arrayname = qw($ £ * & ! #);
 
Any comments on what I need to do or am doing wrong?
