Esteemed Monks.
Let's say I have two hashes :
%hash1 = (
foo => 'bar',
baz => { quux => 'qwe',
rty => 'uiop', },
perl => ['monks', 'monastery', 'robes'],
)
%hash2 = (
wizardry => 'hocus-pocus',
foo => 'f00',
baz => { grail => 'arthur', },
perl => ['yayy', 'yippee'],
hash3 => {key1 => 'value1', key2 => 'value2', },
);
I'd like to "add" %hash2 to %hash1, and existing data should be overwritten while nonexistent data should be added. What would be the best approach to this?

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).
