I have a problem with a certain script, as a beginner.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
#
# Cookie Monster
$cookie = "";
while ( $cookie ne 'cookie') {
print 'Give me a cookie: ';
chomp($cookie = <STDIN>);
}
print "Mmmm. Cookie.\n";
while ( $cookie ne 'cookie') {
print 'Give me another cookie: ';
chomp($cookie = <STDIN>);
}
print "Mmmm. Cookies.\n";
When I input 'cookie', the script will print the lines that will appear
from the first and second requests. The script will not print the second
request's demand. I think it's because the ne value is the same for the
two, and I cannot separate the demands unless I change the ne value for
the second demand to 'another cookie'.
