To join strings there are several options
for printing your best bet is to send a comma seperated list, as that
will have fewer syscalls (as per llama book advice).
EX:
print "Hello", " World", $scalar_that_will_be_attached_to_end,
@array_that_will_be_flattened;
for setting it in a variable there are about a million and one ways to
do this (TMTOWTDI).
you can use the '.' operator
EX:
$var1 = $var2 . $var3;
and the other way *I* regularly find usefull is the '.' operator in a
foreach loop
EX:
foreach $item (@arry) { $var . " " . $item }
there are about a million other ways, those three will fit into most
cases (at least they have for me), if your really serious about learning
perl I suggest getting Programming Perl (oreilly) and Advanced Perl
(oreilly) and The Perl Cookbook (oreilly)
