Dear experts,
Suppose I have the following array and marker:
my @arr = qw( bar qux foo qux2 bar2 foo foo3 );
my $marker = "foo";
What I intend to do is to print all the elements
of the array starting from marker first found to the
end of the array. Yielding:
foo
qux2
bar2
foo
foo3
Thus skippping the first two elements of the array ("bar" and "qux"). What's the best construct to achieve that?
I've tried the following, but it doesn't give
the result I desired:
my @arr = qw( bar qux foo qux2 bar2 foo foo3 );
my $marker = "foo";
foreach my $arr (@arr) {
next unless ($arr eq $marker);
print "$arr\n";
}
continue {
print "$arr\n";
}
