Dear all: I want to use hash to keep my records. But before using it, I want to determine whether the value of the key exist? Below is my source code: if($hash{$key} eq "") { print "the value of the $key is empty\n"; $hash{$key}=1; } else { $hash{$key}++; } It works but I will receive some warning message like: "Use of uninitialized value in string eq at F:\driver_source\autoBuild\checkout\test6.pl line 46. the value of the 9 is empty" Is there any way to avoid it? appreciate your help, miloody
