perl sum 2nd field in an array

Hi Everyone,

Code:
($total+=$_) for @record;

assume @record=(1,2,3), so the result is 6.
if @record=("1 3","2 3","3 3"), would like to sum up the 2nd field of this array, the result is 9.
i tried " ($total+=$[2]) for @record ", cannot, please advice.

Thanks

Code:
 
@record=("1 3","2 3","3 3");
($total+=(split / /, $_)[1]) for @record;
print $total;

Split the second field, and then sum it up.
