Re^2: Summing Variables in foreach loop

A more normal way to use reduce would be to use the + operator in there, not +=. Using += could give the impression that the variable $a can be usefully modified within the block.

say reduce { $a + count_zeros($cgs,$b) } 0, <DATA>;

A even more normal way would be avoid reduce entirely :) `say sum 0, map count_zeros($cgs,$_), <DATA>;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
