volks,
it's crisis time in uncle drieux's neighborhood, so that
I could simplify the code maintenance I opted to use a variable
inside another loop that is based upon the Max index value of
the keys in %decrHash - all of which are ints....
#
# what we use so we do not have to change the code below
#
my $decrCount=0;
#
# one way to implement 'get Max Index'
#
for ( keys %decrHash ) { $decrCount = $_ if ( $_ > $decrCount) ;}
the other one liner would look like:
my ($decrCount) = sort { $b <=> $a } keys %decrHash;
I really wanted to do that with a 'shift' on the list returned
by sort - but it whined at me and I told it to go away and just
opted to list context the $decrCount, and throw away the rest
of the data.....
now I want to do which one of these for what reason again????
ciao
drieux
