Re^4: Repeat question (redo)

($random_integer1, $random_integer2) = ($random_integer2, $random_inte
+ger1) if $random_integer1 < $random_integer2;

that was exactly one the "more perlish ways" I was referencing. I would have done it that way for myself, but I thought the explicit swap was more concrete for the OP to understand what was going on.	[reply]

Yeah, I guess I missed the last sentence of your previous post when I first read it. I might not have reacted if I had seen it. Still, I think it was useful to show this other way of swapping values without using a temporary variable.	[reply]
