senget76 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Dear Monks I was able to generate graph from a dynamic set of data using GD:Graph module. However, I have other problem regarding the legend. I am not sure how to set the legend since the name of the legends is also dynamic. I try to pass an array, but the program returns the array location 
@temp_legend[0]="name1";
@temp_legend[1]="name2";
@temp_legend[2]="name3";
$graph->set_legend(@temp_legend);

I hope somebody could help me out thank you

Edit: Added <code> tags. larsen

    I don't quite follow what you mean by 'the program returns the array location', but a mistake in the code snippet above is how you assign values to array elements. In this case, your array elements are scalars, so you assign values thusly: 
    $temp_legend[0]="name1";
$temp_legend[1]="name1";
$temp_legend[2]="name3";

    BTW, you should put <code> tags around your code, that way the [] don't get eaten.
