Hello Monks! I've just started learning perl yesterday so this is probably newbie question. I'm trying to run the following basic code on Cygwin but it gives me errors. 


#!C:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl

use strict;
use warnings;

print "Array Sample \n"
my @arrayone = ("String :","Hello","Number :",555);
print "$arrayone[0] $arrayone[1]\n";
print "$arrayone[2] $arrayone[3] \n";

This is the error I get

syntax error at testarray.pl line 7, near "my "
Global symbol "@arrayone" requires explicit package name at testarray.
+pl line 7.
Global symbol "@arrayone" requires explicit package name at testarray.
+pl line 8.
Global symbol "@arrayone" requires explicit package name at testarray.
+pl line 8.
Global symbol "@arrayone" requires explicit package name at testarray.
+pl line 9.
Global symbol "@arrayone" requires explicit package name at testarray.
+pl line 9.
Execution of testarray.pl aborted due to compilation errors.

This works perfectly on my friend's Ubuntu but don't know why am I getting this error on Cygwin.

Ubuntu Virtual OS is very very slow on my Windows 7 so had to go with Cygwin.

Please guide me through if this isn't correct section to post ! Thank you!
