Re^2: Identical Arrays

Not so easy!

my @one   = (chr(1), chr(1), chr(1));
my @two   = (chr(1).chr(0).chr(1), chr(1));
say identical(@one, @two); # returns 1

I know. This is one of the degenerate cases where a specially crafted string will break this simple subroutine. CountZero A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James My blog: Imperial Deltronics	[reply]
