Your code (is it a snippet from the actual code?) does not even compile on my box and (correctly) emits the error: Can't modify constant item in scalar assignment at - line 1, near ""Wright";" Execution of - aborted due to compilation errors. - How exactly did you invoke your code? - What is output if you run the code: #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; my $street='Wright'; # ok, why not :-) print "$street\n"; $street='Washington'; print "$street\n"; __END__ ?
