Re: Program can not read the contents of a small file that it has recently written!

Let me be the first to tell you: throw a use strict line near the top of your code.

$PM = "Perl Monk's";
$MCF = "Most Clueless ~~Friar~~ Abbot";
$nysus = $PM . $MCF;

Let me be the first to tell you: throw a use strict line near the top of your code. I'm sorry, but I don't get it. How does adding a `use strict;` help in solving the problem? -- Abigail	[reply] [d/l]

Sorry the original code does have a use strict in it. As you can see almost all the virabels are defined with `my`. So add a `my` to the first line were the variable $prometer is used along with `use strict;` at the top and we still have the same problem.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
