help ! my array spits out numbers in a vertical list - i need it to be one long number on a line so i can test it later. As you can see by the commented code I have tried a few different iterations of this and all give the same thing!! Please,, what am i doing wrong? tankx bob
@h = ($netman= `ps -ef|grep -i netman|grep -v grep|wc -l`, $jobman= `ps -ef|grep -i jobman|grep -v grep|wc -l`, $mailman= `ps -ef|grep -i mailman|grep -v grep|wc -l`, $batchman= `ps -ef|grep -i batchman|grep -v grep|wc -l`, $writer= `ps -ef|grep -i writer|grep -v grep|wc -l` ); #%h = ("a", "$netman", "b", "$jobman", "c", "$mailman", "d", "$batchma +n", "e", "$writer"); @h = ("$netman","$jobman","$mailman","$batchman","$writer"); @bob = @h; print @bob; #print "[0],[1],[2],[3],[4]" #print $h {$netman} $h {$jobman} $h {$mailman} $h {$batchman} $h {$wri +ter}; #print "$netman$jobman$mailman$batchman$writer";
