No, your function is written incorrectly, and you don't use it correctly.

You can look through the %main:: hash to see the variables that exist in
the main:: package.

Why the double array? (-5 .. 0) works just as well as (6 .. 11).

Hi All,
thankx for the help (Sudarshan Raghavan and Beau E.
Cox), i have found a generic solution
here is the sample script...
#
#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
##
# modules
##
use strict ;
##
You could also use
return $_[0] !~ m/[^a-zA-Z0-9]/;
or
return $_[0] =~ m/^[a-zA-Z0-9]+\Z/;
the last one is clearer to me because you eliminate all of the negatives.

the statement:

won't work. it's:
print Test::HI,"\n";
that i have in the code. Otherwise, Perl thinks that you want to print $_ to
the HI file ha
Ah, then what about
print HI, "\n";
the comma should disambiguate from a filehandle, right?

no. sorry! :-(
in that case, Perl probably thinks that you want to call the function HI and
than print whatever that function return to STDOUT.
no such HI function so Perl will panic! :-)

You should look at the rand function

also,

and look for the . operator and .= operator as well as the .. range
