Since Perl doesn't support two-dimensional arrays
Um, actually Perl does:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my @twoDArray = (
[1, 2, 3, 4],
[5, 6, 7, 8],
[9, 10, 11, 12, 13]
);
# Avoiding indexes
for my $rows (@twoDArray) {
for my $value (@$rows) {
print "$value ";
}
print "\n";
}
print "\n";
# Using indexes
for my $rIdx (0 .. $#twoDArray) {
for my $vIdx (0 .. $#{$twoDArray[$rIdx]}) {
print "$twoDArray[$rIdx][$vIdx] ";
}
print "\n";
}
Prints:
1 2 3 4
5 6 7 8
9 10 11 12 13
1 2 3 4
5 6 7 8
9 10 11 12 13
In fact Perl supports as many dimensions as you want and actually allows mixtures of arrays, hashes and various scalar types as well in arrays.
Premature optimization is the root of all job security
