Hello Monks, I have wrote a program that stores five numbers in different variables and then calculates the sum of these numbers. Thereafter, it divides each number with the sum and store these in an array. Last, it prints out the entire array to the terminal. I just want to ask is this the good approach which i used? please have a look at my code below 

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use warnings;
use strict;

my $num1 = 5;

my $num2 = 10;

my $num3 = 15;

my $num4 = 20;

my $num5 = 25;

my $totalSum = $num1 + $num2 + $num3 + $num4 + $num5;

my @array = ($num1/$totalSum, $num2/$totalSum, $num3/$totalSum, $num4/
+$totalSum, $num5/$totalSum);

print "The required numbers are: @array";
