Hi, since Perl 5.12 you can use Each to give back the index as well:
Code: use v5.12; my @ar = ('mais', 'kirschen', 'bohnen', 'gurken'); while(my ($index, $value) = each(@ar)) { say "Index: $index -> Value: $value"; } Outcome: Index: 0 -> Value: mais Index: 1 -> Value: kirschen Index: 2 -> Value: bohnen Index: 3 -> Value: gurken Regards, Wolf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
