Explaining any terms likely to be unfamiliar to laymen or specialists in other fields (most of the Monks, for example, or, at least, to /me anyway) when raising a question here (rather than, making us search for explanations) is helpful or even prerequisite if you hope for quick, on-target help.

Starting with the most nearly obvious:

See I know what I mean. Why don't you? and please also note that most SoPW should demonstrate that you've made some effort to answer your own question. If you're stuck whilst coding, please include your code, error messages and warnings, etc.. as well as sample data.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
