The tutor continues about Perl arrays with another trick.<\/h1>\n

For background, the reader can look up yesterday’s post<\/a>. The main idea is that an array is a list of values.<\/p>\n

Let’s imagine an array declared as follows:<\/p>\n

@arr0=(“milk”,”eggs”,”bread”);<\/span><\/p>\n

To print @arr0<\/span> one could use the command<\/p>\n

print @arr0;<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the elements would not be spaced apart; the output would be<\/p>\n

milkeggsbread<\/span><\/p>\n

The same command, but with @arr0<\/span> in quotes:<\/p>\n

print “@arr0”;<\/span><\/p>\n

will print the items with spaces in between:<\/p>\n

milk eggs bread<\/span><\/p>\n
