Since you obviously already has solved the problem, I guess you're mostly after other ways to do it just out of novelty or something. But here's another way, at least:
my @numlist = (1,2,3,4,5);
if (join (",", @numlist ) eq join (",", (1..$#numlist+1))) {
print "correct";
} else {
print "incorrect";
}
Or more onelinerish:
print ( (join (",", @numlist) eq join (",", (1..$#numlist+1))) ? "corr
+ect" : "incorrect" );
Seems like Array::Compare could be a good place to go too.

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).
