Re: removing an element without index

in reply to removing an element without index

I hope the following approach is helpful for you:

You want to access an element from the array, therefore you need an index.
Therefore your first step would be to search the element (and by that its index) in the array
Now you have the index and can delete the element easily :-)

You want to access an element from the array, therefore you need an index. Not quite. Consider: `my @data = (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10); my ($element) = grep {m/4/} @data; # Get the first element containing +the digit 4` [download] True laziness is hard work	[reply] [d/l]
