Actually, this will generate an error on the read_char because perl will see
that as a subroutine. This is almost the same, but will do what you want
without giving errors:
use strict;
my $Line = "some string";
my @array = split (//,$Line); #split on null
foreach my $char (@array){
print "$char\n";
}
would return:
s
o
m
e
s
t
r
i
n
g
Hope this helps...
