Re: Of foreach loops and counting

The easiest way I know of is to do something like.

foreach (0..$#array){
  # do stuff, $_ holds iteration num.
}

Or if you really want to use one of Perl's special variables, try this: `for ($[..$#array) { ## Foo }` [download] since "0" is not necessarily the first element of the array. Of course, nobody should ever, ever change the $[ variable except as part of an obfuscated perl program. :)	[reply] [d/l]

Ok, and then I would just get my array values with $array[$_] instead of having the value be in $_. Sounds good to me. Thanks.	[reply]
