Shell Programming and Scripting

Perl code:

Code:

$code = 11368;
@digit = ();

for ($i = 0; $i < length($code); $i++)
{
    $digit[$i] = substr($code, $i, 1);
    print $digit[$i]."\n";
}

The substr() function takes 3 arguments, the string, offset (position, start from 0), and length. For example, substr("Hello", 1, 2) will return the string "el". The details can be obtained from the man page "man perlfunc".

will look it up>> but i have one more question! how do i access the perl tutorial man pages.. I have tried everything and learning some perl would help with this type of issue.. any suggestions on how i can access this tutorial or any of the information on perl itself,, I can't seem to make heads ot tails of trying to get into the man pages of the perl section.. gnu/linux (fediora core 2 vs 2.6.8-1.521).
thanx moxxx68..

Typing "man perl" will give you a list of the various other perl manpages that are available.

"man perlintro" is as good a place to start as any.

Searching Google for Perl Tutorials will give you 2,040,000 results.
