I am sure that this has been asked before but I guess I CAN'T figure out the correct search mojo.

    1. Is this the correct way to write this data structure? Suggestions?

    2. How do I access the size of the 'disallowed' array?

    3. What is the best way to foreach this array?
my %t_type = ( 'a' => { 'chance' => {'low' => 2, 'high' => 12, 'percent' => 50}, 'range' => {'number' => '','disallowed' => ['none','1','2']}, } ); print "$t_type{'a'}{'magic'}{'disallowed'}[2] \n";
I am not having problems accessing the array slice but getting the entire array info is proving troublesome.

thanks in advanced
