As others have said, delete on an array is not used that often, I can remember only using it once or twice ever for a special situation when I really wanted to leave an undef entry.

Typically I would say you probably want splice or the other array functions others have mentioned pop, shift because these all and remove array elements and shrink the array and that is a much more often used functionality, at least from my experience.

Looking at your code you probably want this, no?

my $file="test_html"; my @file_lkp=("file1","file2"); for (my $i=0;$i<=$#file_lkp;$i++) { splice(@file_lkp, $i, 1) if $file eq $file_lkp[$i]; }

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
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.
