Thank you very much for your great help.
I have fixed the variable declaration part and worked fine.
Now, I understand why it worked when I put
printf $arg00+$arg01."\n";
between this code. Thanks again for your help, I have been suffering for days about this.
thanks,
toro

[root@local]#cat test.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warning;

my $arg00=0+shift ( @ARGV );
my $arg01=0+shift ( @ARGV );

#printf $arg00+$arg01."\n";
printf( "%d", $arg00 & $arg01 );
