Re: Type of arg 1 to splice must be array (not keys)

I don't understand what you are trying to do. The statement
splice( keys(%mh), 0, 100 ) ;
suggests you want to remove the first 100 keys from the hash. However, a hash does not have a 'first n keys': 'first' implies order, and a hash does not have 'ordered' keys.

The statement
my @k = keys(%mh) ;
gives you all the keys of the hash in essentially random order.

I hope to get any order when I use Tie::IxHash I guess splice returns the removed elements, right ? So when I do something like `...... grep { ... } splice( keys(%my),0,100 ) ;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
