In Perl, there are two ways to check if two arrays are equal. We can compare two arrays in Perl with the help of "Storable freeze" function or by creating our own custom function. In this tutorial, we will explore both these approaches with the help of examples. Example 1 Let's first explore the "Storable freeze" code and understand how it works. Consider the code shown below. use Storable qw/freeze/; use strict; $Storable::canonical = 1; my @countriesOne = ('India', 'China', 'Russia', 'USA', 'Germany'); my @countriesTwo = ('India', 'China', 'Russia', 'USA', 'Germany'); my @countriesThree = ...

Suppose we get a variable at runtime in Perl and we want to check if the value that it contains is numeric or not, then we can use the two approaches shown in this tutorial. We will use two simple examples to demonstrate how it works. Example  The most basic approach is to use the length and do keywords and then ignore the warnings. Consider the code shown below for the same. $x = 100; if (length(do { no warnings "numeric"; $x & "" })){ print "x is numeric"; } else { print ... Read More

Let's consider a scenario where we would want to know if a Perl hash already contains a key or not. To do so in Perl, we can use the exists() function. In this tutorial, we will explore the exists function with the help of two examples. The exists() Function in Perl In Perl, the exists() function checks whether a particular element exists or not in an array or a hash. If the requested element appears in the input array or hash, this function returns "1", else it returns "0". Example 1 Consider the code shown below. In this example, we ... Read More

The grep function in Perl is used to filter the input supplied in the function as a parameter out of the list of items. Similar to Linux, it uses the given input to find the matching value. The grep() Method "grep" is a built-in function in Perl, we can pass our regular expression inside this function. It will check the input for matching values and return a list based on whether the condition is true or false. Syntax As ... Read More
