Hello ... I am trying to figure out, which operator to use; pop, shift or splice. My goal is, as an option is selected from user input, pop or splice or shift elements off ( those selected from user input ) and repopulate array with reamaining elements.

Scenerois:

as numbers are selected
remove elements from array A
repopulate list with what is remaining into array A
print array A

as numbers are selected
remove elements from array A
repopulate remaining numbers in to array B
print array B

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 
+- - - -

@ArrayA=(0 .. 1000);
print @array;  ## User now sees selection list.  This could be replace
+d with splice or shift or pop
foreach (splice @ArrayA, @numbers to remove, scalar of @numbers to rem
+ove, @ArrayA)
{
    print $_;
}

# Array A now has 05-1000

OR

@ArrayA=(0 .. 1000);
print @array;  ## User now sees selection list.  This could be replace
+ with a loop that is popping, shifting or splicing
foreach (@ArrayA)
{
    shift @number to remove;
}  
print @ArrayA

# Array A now has 05-1000

OR

@ArrayA=(0 .. 1000);
print @array;  ## User now sees selection list.  This could be replace
+d with splice or shift or pop
foreach (splice @ArrayA, @numbers to remove, scalar of @numbers to rem
+ove, @ArrayB)
{
    print $_;
}

#ArrayB now has 05 - 1000

In reply to popping, shifting or splicing an array??? by drock

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.
