The "problem" is thus. I an reading in data and using split to get it to an array. Each element/column has a specific meaning, eg firstName, lastName etc Rather than using [0], [1] I figured I could set up an enum($firstName, $lastName, etc) I suppose the alternative is to define (constant or variable) each index name manually. Hm... Stupid me :)
($firstName, $lastName, etc) = (1 .. x); Close enough to the enum :D (unless I messed up the range notation). I guess that solves it. On 4/13/07, Rob Dixon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

But it's a solution to a problem, so perhaps you ought to tell us what the problem is instead of trying to implement a C solution?
