I got an array of values where the order is relevent, eg the ages of
Alice, Bob and Charles, and I want to make a hash out of it. I got
this code that does it:
my %ages = (alice => $r[0], bob => $r[1], charles => $r[2]);
Is there a more elegent way to do it?
This is not elegant in this example but it possibly is the answer you
are looking for.
my %ages{ 'alice', 'bob', 'charles'} = @r;
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
my @people = ( 'alice', 'bob', 'charles' );
my @list = ( 1, 2, 3 );
my %ages = ();
@ages{ @people } = @list;
print Dumper \%ages;
