in thread search and replace strings in different files in a directory

Does this help clear it up? 

#!/usr/bin/perl --
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dump qw/ dd /;
Main( @ARGV );
exit( 0 );
sub Main {
    dd( -argv, \@ARGV );
    for my $ar ( @ARGV ){
       Sky( $ar );
    }
    Sky(6);
}
sub Sky {
    my( $ra ) = @_;
    dd( -ra, $ra );
    dd( -args, \@_ );
}
__END__
$ perl sky
("-argv", [])
("-ra", 6)
("-args", [6])

$ perl sky a b c
("-argv", ["a", "b", "c"])
("-ra", "a")
("-args", ["a"])
("-ra", "b")
("-args", ["b"])
("-ra", "c")
("-args", ["c"])
("-ra", 6)
("-args", [6])

Re^4: search and replace strings in different files in a directory (Path::Tiny)

    Thanks a mil for providing this code. I appreciate your help, but this complicates matters, I cannot make heads nor tails of this.

    It is a bit too cryptic for a beginner like me who has not yet grasped some basic concepts.

    Would you mind providing some explanatory sentences and establish a link to my recent problem?

    I might learn faster if provided with some practical examples

    I surely will have another go at your code and try to figure what you would like to teach me.

    Thanks a mil for taking the trouble explaining this matter.

    Kind regards

    C.

        Hi there

        Thanks a mil for providing the links and topics. That was exactly what I was looking for. Like I said, I have not yet touched the subroutines topic in the books I have.

        I will read the relevant chapters and write lines explaining the code that was provided here. I will also post the results to get your opinion on my findings. It might take a while though...

        Thanks a mil for sharing the links.

        Kind regards and take care

        C.
