The point here is not conjugating verbs. The student has been presented with a simplistic problem in order to develop skills in handling strings and arrays using Perl. Let's get him up to speed on for and split. If he can't master those, CPAN won't be of much use to him.

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 (NASB)

CountZero A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James My blog: Imperial Deltronics	[reply]
