Um ... do you mean s/perl6/perl5/ above? In perl6 the @ sigil does not always mean list context; it just means that you're dealing with an array somehow. Your code above is practically perl6 already. The only problem with it that I see is that you need to use @y[] to interpolate an array into a string: my $x = 0; my @y = 1..9; @y[$x++]++; print "$x\n"; print "@y[]\n" -Scott -- Jonathan Scott Duff [EMAIL PROTECTED]
