Re: integer operations

There's also the integer pragma. You don't want it in this case because it will throw away the 0.5 giving you 7, but I expect some other monks looking at this will find it useful:

$ perl -Minteger -e 'print 15/2'
7

obvious but... `perl -Minteger -e 'print 15/2 + 1'` [download] prints 8... or `use strict; use warnings; my $eight = int (15 / 2 ) +1; print $eight;` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Untested: `my @integers = 1..50000; print $integer[15/2];` [download] Yes, I'm just being silly. Also, this won't work for negative numbers. At all.	[reply] [d/l]
