Anonymous Monk,

print "$_\n" for @array;

Cheers - L~R

Update: I love Perl

In a short span of time numerous solutions have been provided. For such a simple task as printing the elements of an array - lots of Perl has been used:

  • bare blocks to limit scope
  • The need to use local instead of my on Perl built in global variables
  • printf for flexibility over print
  • Print many with a for loop versus printing once with join
  • Weird built in variables such as $_, $", $/, and $,

    Let me add a couple more using $\ and map

    { local $\ = "\n"; print $_ for @array; } or print map {$_ .= "\n"} @array;
