What would really be nice here is an C<index> function, similar to the
scalar version, that returns the index of the matching entry in a list. For
instance:
my $n=0;
foreach (@items){
print "Found It at position $n!\n" if /$seek/;
$n++;
}
Could be replaced by:
if (my $n = arrindex( @items, $seek )) {
print "Found It at position $n!\n" ;
}
