in reply to Create an array with another variable

Read MJD's article Why it's stupid to `use a variable as a variable name' (<--Offsite link)

If you like the article and are thinking of ++'ing this node, go track down one of dominus' nodes and upvote that instead.

    Your post deserves a ++ just for pointing this out. Promoting reuse always deserves a ++. A vast percentage of perl questions have already been answered numerous times (and at least once by merlyn ;D), and are readily available, and helping users figure that out, and learn how to help themselves is very important and commendable (it is also one of the lessons in this tutorial).

    Kudos and a ++ to you blyman.
