[MacPerl] Elementary question (I think)

[Chris Sansom <chris@highway57.co.uk>]

Hi MacPerlers

This is really a general Perl question, but it happens to have cropped up
while I'm testing a CGI script written with MacPerl.

Suppose I have an array @stuff, when can and can't I use this syntax:

for ($i = 0; $i <= @stuff, $i++) {
...
}

I was under the impression that this was perfectly safe, but it seems to
break my script. As soon as I change all those @'s in this type of
construct to $# it works just fine.

 Cheers ... Chris
