Doesn't that rely on undefined behaviour though? Auto increment and Auto decrement:

Note that just as in C, Perl doesn't define when the variable is incremented or decremented. You just know it will be done sometime before or after the value is returned.
ie: the doc doesn't rule out your code being interpreted as eval { --$i; $b[ $i ] = $a[ $i ] + $a[ $i ] } while $i;

For example: $b[ $i ] = [ $i, --$i ] while $i; builds a list of identical pairs.</c>

Correct and efficient might be:

$#b = $#a-1; # Allocate a big enough array $i = @b; $b[ $i ] = $a[ $i ] - $a[ $i+1 ] while $i--;

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
