Ok, I thought I'd start a discussion here before posting this to
perlmonks. I have a little perl task that I often do and just as often
forget how to do. I seem to recall doing it before with grep, map, or
some combination. dunno....when I find out again, I'm going to post it
on my site for reference.
say you have an array and you want to find the index of a particular
element by string comparison. You can do a foreach loop but I know
there's a cleaner way...
my @array = qw( item1 item2 item3 item4 );
find the index of item3.
anyone?
