Your second "foreach" is not necessary.

I think the OP is trying to do this with the second foreach:

for(my $i=1; $i < @array; $i++){ print "The difference is ", $array[$i] - $array[$i-1], "\n"; }

    You are correct(++) - I misread the curly brackets.

    Another way he can achieve this - arguably more readable is:

    my @a=@array; # make a copy, since we will destroy @a my $prev=pop @a; for (reverse @a){ print $prev - $_, "\n"; $prev=$_; }
