Re: Syntax error for the following ???

You can't do

my @Aseen{...} = ...;
[download]

which is what Perl tells you. Split it up into two steps and Perl will understand you:

my %Aseen; @Aseen{ @a } = ()
[download]

Also, why are you copying the values from @$a_ref into @a just to use it to assign to %Aseen ? Why not use them directly for assigning?

@Aseen{ @$a_ref } = ()
[download]

Worked. Thanks. Don't know how it worked without use strict.	[reply]

Also note that in the statement `(@b,``@isec``) = ArrayFunctions(\@ArrayA, \@ArrayB, \@b, \@isec);` the array `@b` will consume the entire list returned by the `ArrayFunctions()` invocation, leaving `@isec` eternally empty. This is due to the 'list flattening' behavior of Perl.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

It doesn't work whether `use strict;` is used or not. `$ perl -e'my @Aseen{@a} = ();' syntax error at -e line 1, near "@Aseen{" Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.` [download] You probably added that `my` at the same time you added `use strict;`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
