in reply to Re^6: Creating 'new' subroutine.
in thread Creating 'new' subroutine.

You posted code where you test an array with ref, it doesn't do what you think it does (it does nothing)

its the equivalent of  if( not ref "shamalama" eq "dingdong" ){ ... }

its equivalent to  if(1){ ... }

clear now?
