Re: Strange compile error?

my $N= #Org;
[download]

If you want to get the length of the array do:

my $N = scalar( @Org );
[download]

You may have been thinking of:

my $N = $#Org;
[download]

Which gives you the index of the last element, probably not what you're looking for.

> `my $N = scalar( @Org );` That's explicit and correct, tho for completeness `my $N = @Org;` [download] has the same implicit effect, since it's a scalar assignment.
