Simply && Fast question regading HASH-ARRAY-HASH data access

Sombrerero_loco has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Why when i print this to ha file:

foreach $prt_nombre (keys (%db)) {
        foreach $prt_indice (0..$#{ $db{$prt_nombre}} ) {
        printf ficherolog "$ahora - Operativa: $db{$prt_nombre} || Vec
+es encontrada: $db{$prt_nombre}[$prt_indice]{'contador'}\n";
        }

}

It only prints me the name in memory of the array.

Also see References Quick Reference if you want to print out references like the referenced things.	[reply]

You probably wanted this `printf ficherolog "$ahora - Operativa: $prt_nombre ...` As you seem to have an Hash of Arrays, the hash values have to be pointers to the array, not any printable value. If you need that, you might store that value into the first element of the array	[reply] [d/l]

If you have the knowledge of determining a question is 'simple && fast', why don't you seek the answer yourself? Having said that, `$db{$prt_nombre}` is a reference to an array. In string context, that gives you 'ARRAY(hex_number)'. If you want to print a specific element, use an index (as you do elsewhere in the string). Otherwise, flatten the array.	[reply] [d/l]

What would you expect a reference to an array to look like? You didn't tell us what would you like to print out instead, so there's not much we can do to help. I would normally assume you want to display the contents of the referenced array, but said array contains equally unreadable hash references.	[reply]
