Is this a standard/normal/ok way to pass and use array by reference? @alpha=("a","b","c"); @numer=(1,2,3);
#calling by reference showIt([EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]); sub showIt { my $a = $_[0]; #assinging by reference my $b = $_[1]; print "a[0]:" . $$a[0] . "\n"; #accessing by reference print "b[0]:" . $$b[0] . "\n"; } Please let me know if there is anything wrong with this practice. -thanks ----------------------------------------- eMail solutions by http://www.swanmail.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
