in reply to Passing Any Range of Values to a Sub

If you run "script add 2 1 3 7 5" then your $ARGV[1]..$ARGV[$len] boils down to 2..5 which is the same as 2,3,4,5. You are close. You want 1..$len and use that to get items from @ARGV. That is called an "array slice" and is written @ARGV[1..$len] (note the @ not $).

    Of course, and array slice, I've used them before, but it never came to me when trying to figure out this problem. Thanks a million.
