Well, it might be that a hash is really what you want, even if you don't
know it yet.
But if you insist on arrays:
@week = ("Mon",undef,"Wed",undef,"Fri");
That will create a sort of "placeholder" for values you know you want to
insert later.
But probably, depending on what you want to do, a hash would be a better
solution.... which begs the question: what do you want to do with this?
