From: rakesh sharma Hi I am a new to perl. Wanted to know how to master some of the daily used perl libraries. Most of the examples are different in usage, some are OO and others are scalar. Some of the Perl modules offer just a functional interface, so no OOP, some of them are jus

Re: Learning perl, understanding the basics.

The information given to you on this is sufficient to explain that the repetition operator (x) takes a string on the left and a number on the right (specifically a positive integer). As you can tell, perl does not make you say that a $foo is an integer or $foo is a string, but rather just allows y

Re: Learning perl, understanding the basics.

That's because in this case the 'x' is acting as an operator which takes in a string on the left side, a number on the right side, and returns the string replicated as many times as the number. When you flip them, it tries to treat the string as a number, which is a problem. So it returns undef or
