Hi Amichai,
first of all never write own code without these two lines:
use strict;
use warnings;
this should allways help a lot. Remember the e-mail from Chas Owens
regarding the "shuffling cards".
making comments in perl goes this way:
# hello, i am a comment.
you made C-style comments: //, /* and */ are not allowed in perl.
there are some other mistakes in your code (e.g use "for" always in this
way: for(..) { .. } ) but you should fix your comments first and then you
can start over trying to learn perl :)
Have fun!
HTH, Martin
