Is there a way I can copy only part of an array into another array.
For example, I want to copy only first 8 elements of source array
into destination array.
You can use the splice( ). See example:
#!/usr/bin/perl - w
use strict;
use warnings;
my @array1 = qw(1 2 3 4);
my @array2 = qw(3 4 5 6);
print "@[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
push(@array2,splice(@array1,2,2));
print "@array2\n";
splice() will remove the elements from the first array so it is not just
copying them it is moving them.
