hi everyone!
if I have a string, lets say
$word="perl";
I want to copy this so I have something like this:
@word_list["p","e","r","l"]
also, how do I get the length of @word_list?
thanks in advance!
Erik

Your following code is an expensive noop ...

Whoops. Why are you using local? Use my unless you _know_ that you need
