I sincerely hope that you're using better indentation in your actual source code. If not, pick some kind of indentation style and follow it. Sloppy indentation leads to errors and makes code tedious to read and maintain. Most programmer's editors (take your pick, there are plenty of nodes discussing the merits of various editors) offer convenience features that either enforce or facilitate good indentation.

Please try to make sure your code is indented consistently when posting examples. It is rude to expect others to spend time sifting through a mess of code just to spot an error that would have been immediately obvious if the code were well-formatted. Writeup Formatting Tips includes some useful information you can use to make the code you post a little more readable.

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;
