Hello Team ,

I am using system command in my script which is running on windows using CMD . The command which I am running is mentioned below .

system("simple_pin_$thost.pl $thost  | findstr \n "2016 TTL timed"  >> ping_$thost.txt" );

when run though the script it gives below error message .

Number found where operator expected at C:\Windows\Scripts\Run_ping.pl

        (Missing operator before 2016?)
