Hi,

Using Join and dot operator, you can concatenate string easily.

Example:-

$string = 'Hello'.'World';
output as,
HelloWorld

$string = join 'Hello','World';
output as,
HelloWorld

Yes...exactly vel!

let me post some example....

using Perl's dot operator:

$name = 'checkbook';
$filename = "/tmp/" . $name . ".tmp";

using Perl's join function

$name = "checkbook";
$filename = join "", "/tmp/", $name, ".tmp";

Actually...usual way of concatenating strings ....

Code:

$filename = "/tmp/${name}.tmp";
