in reply to Dereference array of arrays

UPDATE:
Or you could do like so:

use warnings; use strict; my $array_ref = [ [ '0.93', 'a1', 'b1' ], [ '0.89', 'a2', 'b2' ], [ '0.88', 'a3', 'b3' ], [ '0.87', 'a4', 'b4' ], [ '0.86', 'a5', 'b5' ] ]; for my $val (@$array_ref) { for ( 1 .. $#$val ) { print $val->[$_], $/; } }

If you tell me, I'll forget.
If you show me, I'll remember.
if you involve me, I'll understand.

    Or even just:

    use warnings; use strict; my $array_ref = [ [ '0.93', 'a1', 'b1' ], [ '0.89', 'a2', 'b2' ], [ '0.88', 'a3', 'b3' ], [ '0.87', 'a4', 'b4' ], [ '0.86', 'a5', 'b5' ] ]; for my $row (@$array_ref) { for my $element (@$row) { print $element, "\n"; # using say, or setting $\ locally would wo +rk as well } }
    You often have no need to know the indexes when looping through an array. And since an array begins with index 0, you would skip the first element with : for ( 1 .. $#$val ) UPDATE: which is done on purpose, my bad \o/

      ..You often have no need to know the indexes when looping through an array. And since an array begins with index 0, you would skip the first element with : for ( 1 .. $#$val )..

      And how was I looping through the array of array provided by the OP? Please check Re: Dereference array of arrays again. OR maybe that is met for the OP.
