Can someone help me out with this simple code? It gives an error saying:
Illegal division by zero at test.pl line 4.
Exit 255
Code:
---------------------------------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
sub test {
=09my @[EMAIL PROTECTED];
=09my $div=3D$pars[0]/$par[1];
=09print "Pars were @{_}\n";
}
You mistyped the second variable in your divide statement. It should
read:
my $div = $pars[0]/$pars[1];
Always, always start your code with "use strict;" and "use warnings;"!
