Hello All,
I would like to know how to access character from string lateral.
Say I have
$foo = "From Big Brother Africa";
I would want to print each of the characters of $foo on its own.
In some languages string type is just array/list of characters. What is it
in Perl?
It's a scalar. But you can easily convert it to a list and store it in
an array.
my @characters = split //, $foo;
