Seeking help!

on Aug 04, 2000 at 18:07 UTC ( [id://26191]=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Good Morning perl monks.
I have two different files with several lines. Suppose one containing
perlisfun//comment
and other one containing
isitright//comment1
I need to print file1 merging with file2 in reverse order getting rid of comments and //
Result should be:
tn hu gf is ri tl ir se ip.
I tried chop , but it prints the comment too. Any Ideas? Thankx.

      ROFL. Nice reply.
      The question is: who could teach Perl in a CS101 class?

    I don't mean to come down on you if this is a genuine problem you are having. However, there have been many questions posted recently like the one asked above, all posted by Anonymous Monk that just scream "CS101 homework".

    I can find no practical purpose to the problem presented above. If this is a genuine problem and not homework, can you please explain the context of the problem?

    From now on I will not answer any question that I suspect is CS101 homework and is posted by Anonymous Monk. I hope others will follow my lead. I believe the purpose of Perlmonks is to enlighten the perl community and not to do someone's homework for them.

    Updated
    I had posted a solution to this, but after reading lhoward's post, I removed it. If indeed this question isn't someone's homework, I'll gladly repost my solution.
