Luckily, the OP used the strictures, and it resulted in compile errors. Without them, some code will compile and silently do the wrong thing: `perl -E'@n=7..9;$x=$n[i];say$x' 7` [download] In this case, i is kinda evaluated as numeric :) `perl -MO=Deparse -E'@n=7..9;$x=$n[i];say$x' @n = 7..9; $x = $n[0]; say $x; -e syntax OK` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
