Thanks. It says: `Global symbol "$c" requires explicit package name at script.pl line 41 +. Global symbol "$d" requires explicit package name at script.pl line 41 +. Execution of script.pl aborted due to compilation errors.` [download] Any idea on what could be wrong?	[reply] [d/l]

I guess it's a line like `print "yeah\n" if $method2->($a,$b,$c,$d);` [download] in some scope where $c and $c aren't previously declared. Declare them with my. In case you wonder why $a and $b are missing from perl's complaint: Those variables are special. They are used in sort functions, so they exist anyways. It is discouraged to use them for any other purpose. See perlvar. --shmem _($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.

Thanks. I was just trying the following simple way: `my $aa=1,$bb=1,$cc=1,$dd=1; my $method1 = '(($aa && $bb)) \|\| ($cc && $dd)'; print "yeah\n" if eval $method1; die $@ if $@;` [download] But it still keeps giving me the same bunch of errors. Am I doing something wrong here?	[reply] [d/l]

Thanks... Its working now... I would like to go with the first method but could you show me how to execute multiple statements using it?	[reply]

Because non of variables $a, $b, $c, $d was declared. The question is why $a and $b do not cause problems? The answer: because they are special variables used in sort function. And it is safer not to use them in sample codes because you can get results far from expected.	[reply]
