Output:

uniq1 = [
  '0',
  '1',
  '10',
  '12',
  '13',
  '15',
  '17',
  '19',
  '24',
  '29'
]

same for uniq2

There are many ways to archive something with Perl, as Slices and map are shown above. And there are more as shown in other posts ...

As you are starting to learn Perl (and any other programming languages), it is always painfull in the beginning!!! Get a book, learn the basic, follow online tutorials, and keep execise ... and it will get easier and easier ...

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


No such thing as a small change
