I have a requirement to send my variable to array. I have something like this:
var = "abc|xyz|123";
I want to have the above values in an array.
$arr[0]="abc";
$arr[1]="xyz";
$arr[2]="123";
I used the following way, but I am not getting the array size while using this way:
$var = "abc|xyz|123";
$var =~ tr/|/\n/; # transforming "|" to new line "\n"
@a = $var;
print $a[0];
The complete transformed output is sent to only variable instead of individual variables.
Use split:
@a = split(/\|/, $var);
