Is there a 'better' way to do this.
Well, if you're sure you know what you're doing, you could just turn
the warning off in the specific scope where you don't want it. I
mean, it's a warning. If you're comfortable with what you're doing
(printing a string of spaces as though it was a number), then there's
no reason to care about the warning. Just disable it as locally as
possible:
$array[0] = substr( $_, 256, 6 );
{
no warnings 'numeric';
That would better be:
no warnings qw/numeric uninitialized/;
to cover undefined array elements.
printf "%06d", $array[0];
}
