Re: Cannot print line

Maybe this is what you intended.

#!perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my $infile = "trec7_4collections.txt";
open IN, '<', $infile or die "Could not open $infile $!";
my @rows = <IN>;
close IN;
print $rows[0];

Re poj's contribution -- it works (and, ++ for following the OP's code while correcting it). But it seems unnecessarily complicated in comparison with suggestions in prior answers. On the face of the OP's problem, there's no need to use an array here. If you didn't program your executable by using mechanical switches to toggle-in the binary, it wasn't really programming!
