This has been answered already (you have one item in your array), so $array[1] is empty. > (good news is that ctrl-z appears to be working again) > > When I ran it a second time and skipped a line, it when to the print > message after I skipped a line after Sam. > > C:\>perl hello2.pl > Name your friends: Joe > Sam > I know . If you skipped a line after Joe, then again $array[1] will be empty. Someone posted clear directions on the input steps.
