01:55 <****> I was hoping to go the rest of my life without seeing x86 asm
01:55 <****> i keep telling someone at work, 1 is not a trend.
01:55 <****> kojiro: You did not live dangerously enough in that case.
01:55 <****> kspath_: it was a reference to the movie "Office Space"
01:55 <****> kojiro: Please may I have my stapler back, please?
01:55 <****> mm
01:58 <****> kojiro: I like this stapler, my other stapler....
02:01 <****> when i try to print out some data, its giving me "ARRAY(0xd97490)"
02:02 <****> and i tried to access like an array, but it isn't working :/
02:02 <****> do any of you know what might be going on?
02:02 <****> it's an array reference, treat it like one
02:02 <****> perldoc perlref
02:02 <****> perlbot, works
02:02 <****> Good. I'm glad that your program is a productive member of society, generating value for its fellow men. Now, would you mind telling us exactly what it is doing wrong, what you expect, and otherwise enough actual useful information to help you debug your problem?
02:02 <****> it could also be a string
02:02 <****> me_too, May want to perldoc perlreftut first
02:02 <****> how do i do that
02:02 <****> i dont normally use perl
02:03 <****> where to start...
02:03 <****> nvm
02:03 <****> perlbot, know perl
02:03 <****> We can't really help if you if you don't know perl. #perl is for perl programmers that know perl. Helping you with your script you downloaded is like having a brain surgeon walk you through a lobotomy
02:03 <****> print foreach @$data;
02:03 <****> go t it
02:03 * apeiron revokes mmap__'s fish-giving license.
02:03 <****> haha
02:03 <****> free fish!
02:03 <****> haw
02:03 <****> hmm
02:03 <****> that didn't work
02:03 <****> print foreach @$data;
02:04 <****> me_too, see perlbot's statement above.
02:04 <****> and when i do $data[0] it just says "1"
02:04 <****> And also
02:04 <****> perlbot retardo
02:04 <****> YOU CAN'T JUST MAKE SHIT UP AND EXPECT THE COMPUTER TO MAGICALLY KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN, RETARDO!
02:04 <****> does that mean its just a 1?
02:04 <****> i didn't download a script
02:04 <****> im writing this..
02:05 <****> im just trying to understand how arrays work in perl
02:05 <****> the other 'scripting' languages i know dont prefix arrays with different characters ..
02:05 <****> me_too, Where's your book?
02:05 <****> ?
02:05 <****> perlbot, sigils
02:05 <****> sigils are the characters before variables, functions, and other things: $ @ % & *
02:05 <****> er. Not too useful.
02:06 <****> me_too, Look. This is the way Perl is. If you don't like it, use something else.
02:06 <****> i can wiki it
02:06 <****> aperion no need to be like that
02:06 <****> be nice or do us both a favor and just ignore me pelase
02:06 <****> don't need troll bullshit
02:07 <****> heh
02:07 * mmap__ shakes his head
02:07 <****> there are tutorials, books, perldocs all for free too
02:07 <****> perlbot, ltt
02:07 <****> A three letter acronym: Learn To Think. If you are reading this, it's because you've demonstrated an astounding and lamentable lack of ability or desire to think for yourself. We are not in the business of handing out answers or babysitting. Please use your brain instead of calling for mommy the instant you run into a problem. Or hire a helpdesk; cf jobs.perl.org
02:09 <****> heh
02:09 <****> couldn't be further from the truth on that
02:09 <****> Then stop being a recalcitrant prat and accept Perl for what it is.
02:09 <****> :)
02:09 <****> but you guys are just clearly to eager to point non-experts in the right direction along with an insult
02:09 <****> when did i not accept it?
02:10 <****> It seems you're not happy with Perl's usage of sigils.
02:10 <****> me_too: you asked a question, i thought it was answered :) if you have an array reference ref() will return "ARRAY", otherwise i guess you could have a string as mauke said, although i don't know why
02:10 <****> But hey, whatever.
02:10 <****> i never said that
02:10 <****> i'd never heard of the word 'sigil' before
02:10 <****> cf 'seems'
02:11 <****> and i didn't understand all the different 'sigil's
02:11 <****> wow i must be a real asshole!
02:11 <****> perlbot: #perl is not here to teach you perl
02:11 <****> added #perl to the database
02:11 <****> a sensitive one.
02:11 <****> i've never understood why they're called sigils, i always thought a sigil was a seal
02:12 <****> perlbot: #perl
02:12 <****> not here to teach you perl
02:12 <****> me_too: it's kinda like old school usenet, #perl isn't for sensitive people, don the flame retardant underwear next time
02:12 <****> did i overwrite something? or was there no previous definition?
02:12 <****> 2 : a sign, word, or device held to have occult power in astrology or magic
02:12 <****> OED: An occult sign or device supposed to have mysterious powers.
02:12 <****> apeiron and mauke when are you guys not on #perl?
02:13 <****> sabooky, When I sleep.
02:13 <****> well
02:13 <****> what is the value
02:13 * CPAN upload: XML-API-0.15 by MLAWREN
02:13 <****> I slept and woke up, and the last 2 messages i see are by you 2.
02:13 <****> in being unfriendly on #perl?
02:13 <****> what is love?
02:13 <****> baby don't hurt me
02:13 <****> don't hurt me
02:13 <****> no mo
02:13 <****> gu[tab][tab][tab]
02:13 <****> dammit
02:13 <****> mmap__: HAHAHAH
02:13 <****> imho, go to #ruby or #c++ on freenode and they're not total assholes
02:13 <****> ...
02:13 <****> #C++?
02:13 <****> Are you sure?
02:13 <****> well, it's ##c++
02:14 <****> Same thing.
