This may be a newbish question, but according to the map perldoc... `%hash = map { getkey($_) => $_ } @array; is just a funny way to write %hash = (); foreach $_ (@array) { $hash{getkey($_)} = $_; }` [download] So doesn't `map` still solve the problem by using a loop? And wouldn't all the inefficiencies of using a loop directly be carried over by using `map`? Honest questions, I'm genuinely curious.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Unless you want a recursive solution, there will be a loop, either explicity with for, while etc, or implicitly with map, grep etc. Some people (but not me) might prefer something like: `my @husbands = husbands( @AoH ); sub husbands { my $this = shift; return ( $this->{husband}, husbands( @_ ) ) if @_; return $this->{husband}; }` [download] Look Ma, no loops!
