On a side note, it's a pity we can't use exists on hash slices ... `DB<9> exists @h{"a","z"} exists argument is not a HASH or ARRAY element or a subroutine at (eva +l 18)...` [download] Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery FootballPerl is like chess, only without the dice}	[reply] [d/l]

In a recent thread it was shown that hash slices are not faster than maps, `exists` on hash slices is not needed. `sub slex { my $h = shift; return map { exists $h->{$_} \|\| 0 } @_ } my %h = map { $_ => 1 } 'a'..'t'; my @bool = slex \%h, 'a'..'z'; print "@bool\n";` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You must be joking! (?) The benchmark was about non intuitive performance of constant lists. Slices are 5 times faster than maps in this example, and the overhead of join is still included Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) Wikisyntax for the Monastery FootballPerl is like chess, only without the dice}	[reply]

Thank you so much, haukex. Yes, "exists" is what I was looking for. Thank you for the enlightenment :))	[reply]
