Re: lower case multiple strings

my split statement actually goes more like this:

($s1, $s2, $s3, $mon, ... , $sun) = split (/ /);
[download]

so $_ puts in too much information. I tried something like:

($s1,$s2, $s3, $mon, $tue, $wed, $thu, $fri, $sat, $sun) = split (/ /)
+;
$alldays = ($mon, $tue, $wed, $thu, $fri, $sat, $sun);
$alldays2 = lc($alldays);
print "$alldays2\n";
[download]

which I think is quite long-winded but for some reason my output is just $fri.

You might want to look at the join function join EXPR,LIST Joins the separate strings of LIST into a single string with fields separated by the value of EXPR, and returns that new string. Example: `$rec = join(':', $login,$passwd,$uid,$gid,$gcos,$home,$shell);` [download] Beware that unlike "split", "join" doesn't take a pattern as its first argument. Compare the split entry elsewhere in this document.	[reply] [d/l]
