I am trying to get my mind around using fork()
I have a text file that has solid, liquid, and gas on it all on new
lines, how I understand fork() is if I wanted to do a print each
statement on each line in the file, fork() could do all at once with
parent and child processes.
I can get around doing this with a while loop i.e
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
open(FILE, "text1.txt");
while (my $line = <FILE>) {
print " The current state is $line"."\n";
}
How could I achieve the same with fork() ?
