Re: [MacPerl] Elementary question (I think)

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

Hi all

...and boy, was I right to 'think' that! Duh! Here I've been merrily coding
away doing some - though I say it myself - quite sophisticated stuff - and
I'd never taken in that @stuff is the number of elements in the array while
$#stuff is the index of the last element!

Many thanks to all those who have pointed this out and put me on the road
to enlightenment - especially Chris Nandor, Bart Lateur Ronald, J. Kimball
and Dave Lorand... and no, I'm not using tied array... and no, I haven't
changed $[... so I could use '$i < @stuff' in place of my '$i <= $#stuff'
or even the 'for my $i (0 .. $#stuff)' construct with impunity.

Many thanks again, everyone!

 Cheers ... Chris
