What's in an Array, Index Numbers

@ft=("London", "Paris", "Tokyo");
print "$ft[0]";

Which prints:
London


-The array we named @ft has three cities stored in it.
-The INDEX NUMBERS start with zero, so $ft[0] equals London, $ft[1] equals Paris and so on.


NOTE: We didn't need to SPLIT the array, because it was already in pieces. Had the array looked like this: "London,Paris,Tokyo" with quotes around the whole thing, we would have needed to split like this:

@ft=split(/,/, "London,Paris,Tokyo");


Copy and Paste Perl Code:

#!/usr/bin/perl

print "Content-type:text.html\n\n";

@ft=("London", "Paris", "Tokyo");
print "$ft[0] ";

@ft=split(/,/, "London,Paris,Tokyo");

print "$ft[2]";


exit;
