planetscape,

Nice 'Not Exactly a Hash Tutorial' article...good job, hashes are certainly clearer now. It helps to cut and paste your examples and run them.

The following links I noticed were broken:

Hashes, as explained in PerlGuts Illustrated, by Gisle Aas

Perl.com: How Hashes Really Work, by Abhijit Menon-Sen

Effective Perl: Intermediate and Advanced Topics contains a wealth of information, not limited to hashes, but also including several pages on Joseph N. Hall's PErl Graphical Structures (PEGS)

I received a 404 error for them...

Other than that I appreciated all the examples you provided and the links that did work, I downloaded the documents...never know when they will disappear...

Thanks again! :)

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.
