Try the modified code below, it works fine. use strict; use warnings; my $max=3; my @nums = ("10000","10002","10004","10005","10006","140000","1500000"); my @randnum = map { $nums[int rand(@nums)] } 1 .. $max; print "@randnum \n"; -- Regards, Jeff. - [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
