Re: adding number to array name

Like so:

  my $last_one = pop(@{'store_get_dist'.$i});
[download]

update But... I'd not do it that way. I'd make an array of anonymous arrays and say rather

  my $last_one = pop(@{$store_get_dist[$i]});
[download]

than using symbolic references...

--shmem

_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /
----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}

That won't work for lexical variables, and it will piss off `strict` (with good reason.) The far better choice is to use an array of arrays instead. See perldsc. Update: See also Why it's stupid to `use a variable as a variable name'	[reply] [d/l]

Of course. First I answered the OPs question, thenI was completing the node with my objection to the approach. You caught me whilst editing ;-) Maybe the other way round it's better - objection first? --shmem _($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo. G°\ / /\_¯/(q / ---------------------------- \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."· ");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}	[reply]
