Hi all, I'm teaching myself perl. Right now, I am stuck with this script. I don't understand how it works. I know what it does and how to do it by hand.
$n = 1; while ($n < 10) { $sum += $n; $n += 2; } print "The sum is $sum.\n" I know $sum is initially 0 (undef). I see that $sum becomes 1, then $n becomes 3. The loop goes back and then I don't understand. Now $sum is 1+3?
