( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

I looked at Switch first, too. The thing with Switch 'fallthrough' is that it falls to the next condition, not the next bit of code (like it does in C).

If each successive condition is inclusive of all its predessors, you can do it with Switch 'fallthrough':

use Switch 'fallthrough'; sub test_switch { my $val = shift; switch ( $val ) { case 10 { print "a"; } case [9..10] { print "b"; } case [8..10] { print "c"; } case [7..10] { print "d"; } case [6..10] { print "e"; } case [5..10] { print "f"; } case [4..10] { print "g"; } case [3..10] { print "h"; } case [2..10] { print "i"; } case [1..10] { print "j"; } } }

This is hard to extend beyond the realm of successive integers, of course.

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.
