Printing array in perl mason












0















I am new to Perl Mason and I am trying to print an array. I tried several ways, explored the web but nothing seems to work.



I tried - 



my $arr = getArray();

print "Array : $arr"; # prints "Array : ARRAY(0xcd421774)"

my $size = scalar $arr;

print "Size : $size"; # prints "size ARRAY(0xcd421774)"


I also tried to print the first element of the array



print "Element : $arr[0]"; # throws error "Global symbol "@arr" requires explicit package name at ..."

          Your $arr is an array reference. You need to dereference it with the @{ … } operator: @{ $arr } or the shorthand @$arr.



          my $arr = getArray();
          
print "Array : @$arr";
          
my $size = scalar @$arr;
          
print "Size : $size";


          To access one element: ${ $arr }[0] or the shorthands $$arr[0] or $arr->[0], of which the last form should be preferred.

          I am not familiar with Perl Mason but it seems like getArray() does not return an array. It might be returning an array reference. I thought that's the reason why you assign it to a scalar variable $arr, not @arr;



          You can confirm this using Data::Dumper



          use Data::Dumper;
          
print Dumper $arr;


          or ref.



          if (ref($r) eq "ARRAY")


          If it's indeed an array reference, you can access the first element like this:



          $arr->[0];


          Print the array like this:



          print "Array : @$arr";


          And get its size like this:



          my $size = scalar @$arr;

                    A CLEAN and SIMPLE way to add appendices to Table of Contents and bookmarks

                    Image
                    0 I found a lot of questions abount appendices and ToC. Many users want appendices to be grouped in an Appendix part, however some problems arise with ToC, hyperref, PDF viewer bookmarks, and so on. There are different solutions which require extra packages, command patching and other extra code, however none of them satisfies me. I almost found an easy way to accomplish a good result, where appendices are added to bookmarks in the right way and hyperref links point to the right page. However, the number of the "Appendix" part page is wrong (it's the number of appendix A). Is there any EASY way to fix that? This is a MWE: documentclass{book} usepackage[nottoc,notlot,notlof]{tocbibind} usepackage{hyperref} begin{document} frontmatter tableofcontents mainmatter part{First} chapter{...
