More than likely 1.) the file doesn't exist 2.) you don't have read permissions

For a university assignment I need to read the contents of a text file in an array. I am using Windows. The code I am writing is: $file = "/test.txt"; open (INFO, "$file"); @lines = <INFO>; close(INFO); Altough this is supposed to work, I am getting a ''readline() on closed filehand INFO at line 3' message when I interpret it with perl -w.
