hi
i want to know wheather we can build an array which will acta s an hash at runtime
it is possible otherwise in versions 5.005 and above
using the syntax
{key1=>arrayindexvalue1, key2=>arrayindexvalue2,..... }
for example
$arrayreference = [{first =>1,second =>2 } , "hello ","there"];
now this will work both as an array and a hash
print " $arrayreference->{first} \t $arrayreference->{second} \n";
>hello there
print " $arrayreference->[1] \t $arrayreference->[2] \n";
>hello there
can i build this thype of array at runtime
that is can i add elements to this array one by one rather than initializing them all at one
time
thanks
dinesh

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.
