Declare:

 $my index;

at the beginning of your script. 

my $index;
my @message;
my $input = 10;
for my ( 0..$input-1 )
{
    $message[$_][0] = "element 0";
    $message[$_][1] = 42;
}
print "The second array has ", scalar( @{ $message[1] } ), " elements\
+n";
print "They are:\n";
for ( 0..$#{ $message[1] } )
 {
   print "\t", $message[$_][1], "\t", 
}
  print "\t", $message[1], "\t", $message[0] ,"\n";
