Re^4: Hash reference as a parameter

Thanks for your time. But this is not the solution that I wanted!

My idea is very simple. If the user creates the input parameters as a hash then he can alter the hash at any time and call the function. This is what I mean by the following statements.

my %input = {foo => 'bar', oof => 'wha'};
my_sub(\%input);

$input{foo} = 'bar1';
my_sub(\%input);

So, in this case the code I posted first works fine, right? What I am confused about is why you want to pass things like this: `my_sub(\%hash);` [download] instead of like this: `my_sub(%hash);` [download] But, it really doesn't matter, if the solution works for you just use it :) Hrm, do you want the changes to be cumulative or to reset each time?
