Re^2: using List::MoreUtils::zip with anon arrays ?

Yes, thank you.
The thread's really not about getting the stat data to a hash, but about usage of zip in the extended utilities. This was just an example.
I must say though, stvn's example of slice assignment is another pretty interesting way to solve the problem.

Yes, slices are awesome. Another little known feature of hash slices is that they are localizable: `use Data::Dumper; my %hash = ( foo => 1, bar => 2 ); warn Dumper(\%hash); { local @hash{qw/bar moose/} = qw/happy joy/; warn Dumper(\%hash); } warn Dumper(\%hash); __END__ $VAR1 = { 'bar' => 2, 'foo' => 1 }; $VAR1 = { 'bar' => 'happy', 'moose' => 'joy', 'foo' => 1 }; $VAR1 = { 'bar' => 2, 'foo' => 1 };` [download] -nuffin zz zZ Z Z #!perl	[reply] [d/l]
