Re^2: Using the Variable Name from an Array

Simplified question what if I want to do this print the array element varibale name and value
Example:

$test=12;
$test=13;
@array=($test,$test2);
foreach $value(@array)
{
print ?Variable_Name?  $value;
}

Getting @ the variable_name inside of the array is what I can not remember how to do.

Getting @ the variable_name inside of the array is what I can not remember how to do. You don't have a variable_name inside of the array available by assignment. You have the values of the variables. If you want to access the values by name, do so using a hash: `$test =12; $test2 =13; %hash=( test => $test, test2 => $test2, ); foreach $name(qw(test test2)) { print "$name $hash{$name}\n"; }` [download] perl -le'print map{pack c,($-++?1:13)+ord}split//,ESEL'	[reply] [d/l]

The array stores the values, not the variables and their names. `map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]\|\|0,1}[\\|\|{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^ARGV,3]`	[reply] [d/l]
