Hi,
Using the DBI module, I've retrieved a row set from a database. I
have an $ary_ref with which to access the data.
As I understand it, $ary_ref is:
a reference to ...
an array of references to ...
fixed-length arrays containing the selected cells from each row.
The SELECT statement that produced this result specified three columns
to return; A, B, and C.
I want to take the values of A and C from each row, concatenate them
with equal-signs, surround this pair with parens, and join these with
commas.
e.g.
(a1=c1),(a2=c2),(a3=c3) ... etc.
I've been trying to do this in one statement, which perhaps isn't
advisable, nesting join() functions, but I'm failing thoroughly.
Could anyone show me the way (or dissuade me; whatever)?
Thank you,
Chap Harrison
