I'm a bit confused... I wrote a script to test the Geo::Weather module, and it refuses to run. Then I cut and paste the script into the command line, and it runs fine. From the file, I get the error:
Can't use string ("-4") as a HASH ref
referring to this line:
print "The current temperature is $current->{temp} degrees\n";
It really does work if I type "perl -w" at the command line and then paste it in... What silly mistake am I making this time?
use strict;
use Geo::Weather;
my $weather = new Geo::Weather;
my $current = $weather->get_weather('19067');
print "The current temperature is $current->{temp} degrees\n";
