Re^6: check if an element exists in array

I am using your piece of code:

if ( grep { $_->[0] eq $name } @names ) 
{
    
}
[download]

It matches 'Jim' for example, but how do I print Jim's number?
print $_->[1]; ?

I think you haven't thought about this enough. Jim doesn't have a number, he has two. The print above will work in the for loop example I gave in my first reply: `for ( grep { $_->[0] eq $name } @names ) { print $_->[1]; }` [download] Unless I state otherwise, my code all runs with strict and warnings	[reply] [d/l] [select]
