hi monks ! :) need a little help with this map function that i'm trying to resolve..
$input = ':xxx xxxxx = #xxx :xxx @rndletters @rndletters'; @input2arr = split / /, $input; my @names = map {$i > 6 ? push(@names,$input2arr[$i]) : $i++ } @input2 +arr;
with the map function im trying to push each value into the names array starting at offset 6 in the @input2arr array. here is how it would be done without map:
my $i = 0; my $input = ':xxx xxxxx = #xxx :xxx @rndletters @rndletters'; my @names; my @input2arr = split //, $input; for my $str (@input2arr) { if ($i > 6) { push (@names, $str); } $i++; }
