Hello, I'm a fairly basic Perl user trying to troubleshoot a script that involves arrays-of-arrays. I think something is going wrong in the way I move information to and from the arrays-of-arrays, but I can't figure out what. <br/><br/>
If I want to take one "row" of my array-of-arrays and copy it to a separate array, is this correct:<br/>
<code>@SeparateArray = @{ MyAoA[$i] };</code><br/><br/>
And if I want to do the opposite (copy my separate array into a row of my array-of-arrays), is this correct:<br/>
<code>@{ $MyAoA[$i] } = [ @SeparateArray ];</code><br/><br/>
Finally, if I want to copy an entire array-of-arrays (and not just have references to the first one), can I simply write:<br/>
<code>@NewAoA = [ @OldAoA ];</code><br/>
or do I need to build a "for" loop to replace each component array separately, e.g.:<br/>
<code>@{ $NewAoA[$i] } = @{ $OldAoA[$i] };</code><br/><br/>
Thanks to anyone who can help lead me out of this bracket-maze!
