perldoc -f print
ok in perldoc print it states:
If FILEHANDLE is a variable and the next token is a term, it may me
intrepreted as an operator unless you interpose a "+" .
so in the code :
while (<FOO>) {
....code
...code
print +(split)[2], $, ;
}
FOO is my filehandle and it is considered a variable meaning $_ right?
so the next token a term, would be what? print split or 2 ???
a term meaning a unary term?
and what exactly does interpose mean?
thanks
derek

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).
