Re^3: Comparing hash keys and values with Regular Expressions

CountZero

Ok, I admit I made a mistake when saying the output was the same.. Sorry 'bout that, but that's how we learn, right? After testing that piece of code again, with '=', I got the output I desired. But when tested with 'eq', I got the following message as well as an empty output:

Useless use of String eq in void context
[download]

I also got this error message for every single line of my code:

Use of uninitialized value in String eq
[download]

So what's that all about then? :s And how can I correct it by using 'eq' instead of '=' then?

Double-check your quotes (of both flavors, if applicable). Double-check parens, braces, brackets. Post (cut and paste) code so other sets of eyes can actually see possible causes. And re your breezy "Sorry 'bout that, but that's how we learn, right?: while learning from one's errors is a valuable approach, so too is reading the docs when some "wise one" tells you the case or usage is something different than you thought.

... So what's that all about then ... Its easier to point out if you post the new code use diagnostics; for more verbose messages	[reply]
