[MacPerl] FNG
Hello,
Oh god yes I'm a serious neophyte/FNG/newbie .
Three years of Director/Lingo hasn't prepared me for the 'in your face' symbolism of PERL.
Anyway. PERL 5.02 G3Mac.
I'm testing out basic PERL functions and I do the following three lines - copied exactly out of my new PERL book, apart from the variable of course.
$myEmail = 'dowd%40ndirect.co.uk';
$myEmail = ~ s/%40/@/g;
print "$myEmail";
All I get back is 4294967295.
I want to replace the %40 with a @.
But I'd like to know what the 4294967295 is - for next time
regards
Shoreditch
