Good day everyone!

I am trying to practice push and pop so I was making this little project similar to an NPC that stores your items.

The snippet probably looks like something that doesn't exist or make sense because I'm still learning so I apologize and I accept all responses even if they are suppose to offend me.

So here is a snippet, will post problem afterwards! 

my @storage = qw(knife wand bow);
my @inventory = qw( axe sword shovel );
sub depo {
        sleep (1);
        print "Which item would you like to deposit?\n",
        "1. Nevermind\n";
        foreach my $inv (map(ucfirst, @inventory)){
                print "$num. $inv\n";
                $num++;
                }
        $choice = lc(<STDIN>);
        chomp $choice;
        if ($choice =~ $item) {
                my $item = splice @inventory, $choice;
                push(@storage,$item);
                print "You have stored a \"$item\".\n";
        }

SO what I am trying to do is that if I put in "Axe" from my @inventory and it exist, it will take the "axe" from @inventory and add it to @storage so then @storage will equals to knife wand bow axe while @inventory will equals to only sword and shovel.

And if it doesn't exist, it will do 

        else {
        print "Please input a valid answer!\n";
        sleep (1);
        &bank;
        }

Thank you for your time :D!

P.S. there was a grep function before the if($choice =~$item).. thats why the $item was there if you were wondering.. I was experimenting :D!
