Hi all

Thank you for your responses. I just tried the following. Took me a few searches, I also happened to get the brackets wrong for the array....used [ instead of (... and then went "heck, [ is for anonymous arrays..." hahaha. The map and grep took google searches to get it flowing back.

C:\>more first.pl
#use warnings;
#use strict;
my @arr = (1..10);
foreach my $num (@arr) {
        print "Index is: $num. Value is: $arr[$num] ";
}
#Another way
print "\nWith a C like for loop\n";
 for($num = 0; $num<= $#arr;$num++) {
         print "Index is: $num. Value is: $arr[$num] ";
}

my @divbytwo =  map { $_ / 2} @arr;
print "\n\@divbytwo = @divbytwo\n";

my @divbytwoo =  grep { $_ % 2 == 0} @arr;
print "\@divbytwoo = @divbytwoo\n";

C:\>perl first.pl

I think I better start from scratch :)
