Hello list,
Could someone please explain why this test script:
my @arr1 = qw(one two three);
my @arr2 = qw(1 2 3);
foreach my $arr1 ( @arr1 ) {
print "Arr1: $arr1\n";
foreach my $arr2 ( @arr2 ) {
print "Arr2: $arr2\n";
if ( $arr2 eq '2' ) {
shift @arr1;
}
}
}
produces that result:
oracle:/opt/data/magna/wartung/work/nora> ./test.pl
Arr1: one
Arr2: 1
Arr2: 2
Arr2: 3
Arr1: three
Arr2: 1
Arr2: 2
Arr2: 3
whereas I had expected the output to be like this:
oracle:/opt/data/magna/wartung/work/nora> ./test.pl
Arr1: one
Arr2: 1
Arr2: 2
Arr2: 3
Arr1: two # why not?
Arr2: 1 # why not?
Arr2: 2 # why not?
Arr1: three
Arr2: 1
Arr2: 2
Arr2: 3
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Nora
