Hello, I have a lot of fields being concatenated to form a string and sometimes the values are empty, so i am getting this error:
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at ./script.pl line 144, <$IN_FH> line 1. how can i suppress this? my logic flow: $string1 = "a,b,c,d,e,f,........ a very long record" i only want few fields from this record of hundreds of fields, so @array = split(/,/,$string1) then reassemble the array elements into the new string: $string2 = $array[3]." ".$array[7]." ".$array[24].... and so on.... so whenever anything like $array[24] is empty and it occurs in concatenation above i get this error: Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at ./script.pl line 144, <$IN_FH> line 1. how to suppress or avoid this error? ty.
