Hello all,
I have a question about passing a hash to a fucntion. Suppose you had
the following script:
sub function
{
my %operating_systems = &populate_hash(%operating_systems);
do_something_with_hash();
}
sub populate_hash
{
my %operating_systems = ?????;
$operating_systems{"microsoft"} = "Windows";
$operating_systems{"apple"} = "Macintosh";
...
return %operating_systems;
}
What should the ????? be? If it was an array, it would be @_; if it
was a scalar, it would be
my ($scalar) = @_, $_[0], or shift; How about with a hash?
Thank you in advance!
