Re^2: variable sees it, array doesn't

print (join ' ', @array), "\n";

...sadly, Perl's syntax will have you for breakfast here... the brackets will be interpreted as delimiting the parameters of the print "function" -- see perlfunc.

You are right: I thought I was using it someplace, but everywhere I've got it I put something else in before the output of the join. Either `print((join ' ', @array), "\n");` or `print (join(' ', @array)), "\n";` or even `print join(' ', @array), "\n";` should work better.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

`print (join(' ', @array)), "\n"` Unfortunately, this one still doesn't work, for the same reason that `print (join ' ', @array), "\n"` doesn't. An option that I frequently use, though it feels dirty, is `print '', (EXPR), "\n"`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
