Thanks everyone for the help!
I get an error on 'chop' when I use the following. Why is this so?
Thanks

use strict;
use warnings;
my @eightdecks = 1..20;
my $last = chop ($eightdecks[0] + $eightdecks[2]);

if ($last =~ /[0-5]/){
   print "yes match.\n";
}else{print "not match\n"};

Hi,

Hello,

How do I extract the last digit of a number? example I only want the digit 9 from the number 19.

my $number = 19;

my $last_digit = chop $number;
