Time Narration
00:01 Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Array Functions in PERL.
00:06 In this tutorial, we will learn about array functions in PERL like:
00:11 push , pop , shift
00:14 unshift , split
00:16 splice and join
00:18 sort, qw.
00:20 I am using Ubuntu Linux 12.04 operating system and Perl 5.14.2.
00:28 I will also be using the gedit Text Editor.
00:32 You can use any text editor of your choice.
00:36 You should have basic knowledge of variables, data Structures and arrays in PERL.
00:43 Knowledge of comments, loops and conditional statements will be an added advantage.
00:48 Please go through the relevant spoken tutorials on the spoken tutorial website.
00:54 Perl provides certain inbuilt functions.
00:57 These functions can perform various operations on an array.
01:02 Let us first learn how to add and remove elements from the last position of an array.
01:08 This can be done by using
01:10 push function which adds an element at the last position of an array
01:15 and pop function which removes an element from the last position of an array.
01:21 Let us understand push and pop functions by using a sample program.
01:26 Open the terminal and type: gedit perlArray dot pl space ampersand
01:33 and press Enter.
01:36 This will open 'perlArray dot pl' file in gedit.
01:41 Type the code as shown on the screen.
01:45 Here, we have declared an array of length 3.
01:50 push function will insert an element at the last position of this array i.e after 3
01:57 whereas pop function will remove an element from the last position of the array.
02:04 In our case, 4 will be removed from the array.
02:08 Press Ctrl + S to save the file.
02:11 push function takes 2 arguments-
02:14 1st argument to the push function is the array in which to add an element.
02:20 2nd argument is the element which is to be pushed into the array.
02:25 The syntax of pop function is as follows:
02:29 pop function takes only one argument.
02:32 It is the array from which an element needs to be removed.
02:36 Note: Both these functions work at the last position of an array.
02:41 The element removed by pop function can be collected into another variable.
02:46 The syntax for this is $variable space = space pop open bracket @myArray close bracket .
02:57 Now switch to the terminal and execute the Perl script.
03:01 Type: perl perlArray dot pl and press Enter.
03:07 The output is as shown on the terminal.
03:11 Now, let us see how to add/remove an element from the 1st position of an array.
03:18 This can be achieved using-
03:20 unshift function which adds an element to an array at the 1st position.
03:25 shift function which removes the first element from an array.
03:31 Let us understand this using a sample program.
03:35 I will open perlArray dot pl file which I have already created.
03:39 Type the following piece of code as shown on the screen.
03:43 unshift function will insert an element at the first position i.e before 1.
03:52 shift function will remove an element from the first position.
03:57 In our case, zero will be removed.
04:00 Press Ctrl + S to save the file.
04:03 The unshift function takes 2 arguments-
04:06 1st argument is the array in which to add an element,
04:10 2nd argument is the element to be added into the array .
04:15 shift function takes only one argument -
04:18 This is the array from which the element needs to be removed.
04:22 Note: Both these functions work at first position of an array.
04:27 We can collect the element removed by shift function into some variable.
04:33 The syntax for this is: $variable space = space shift open bracket @myArray close bracket.
04:44 Then switch to the terminal and execute the Perl script.
04:48 Type: perl perlArray dot pl and press Enter.
04:54 The output displayed on the terminal is as highlighted.
04:59 Now, let us see how to remove an element from a specified position of an array.
05:05 splice function removes an element from a specified position of an array.
05:11 The return value of this function is an array of removed elements.
05:17 Let us understand this using a sample program.
05:21 Go to the perlArray dot pl file which we created earlier.
05:26 Type the piece of code as shown on the screen.
05:30 We need to provide index from where we want to remove the elements and
05:35 the offset up to which we want to remove the elements.
05:39 In our case, the elements 5 and 6 will be removed.
05:44 Then switch to the terminal and execute the Perl script by typing:
05:49 perl perlArray dot pl and press Enter.
05:55 The output is as shown on the terminal.
05:59 Now, let us look at few other inbuilt functions of arrays.
06:04 split function is used to divide a string at a specified delimiter.
06:10 The return value of this function is an array.
06:14 The elements of this array are the divided portions of the string.
06:19 join function joins the elements of an array using the specified delimiter.
06:25 It returns a string of joined elements.
06:28 sort function sorts an array in alphabetical/numerical order.
06:34 qw function returns an array of words, separated by a white space.
06:40 Now, let us understand all these functions using a sample program.
06:45 Switch to terminal and type:
06:48 gedit arrayFunctions dot pl space ampersand and press Enter.
06:55 Type the following piece of code as shown on screen.
07:00 In this case, each word of the variable string will become an element of an array.
07:07 Here, each element of newArray will be joined by comma.
07:12 sort function will sort the elements of an array in alphabetical order.
07:19 qw function creates an array of words separated by space.
07:25 Let us understand each function.
07:28 split function takes two arguments.
07:31 1st argument is the delimiter by which the string needs to be split,
07:36 2nd is the string which needs to be split.
07:39 Delimiters can be specified in forward slash, single or double quotes.
07:45 join function takes 2 arguments.
07:48 1st is the delimiter by which the array elements need to be joined.
07:53 2nd is the array.
07:55 Delimiters can be specified in single or double quotes.
07:58 sort function takes a single argument which is the array that needs to be sorted.
08:05 qw function returns an array of words, separated by space.
08:11 It is not necessary to specify the word in quotes if written using qw.
08:17 Then switch to the terminal and execute the Perl script by typing:
08:23 perl arrayFunctions dot pl
08:26 and press Enter.
08:29 The following output is displayed on the screen.
08:33 Let us summarize. In this tutorial, we have learnt to:
08:36 add/remove elements from an array
08:40 basic functions which can be performed on array using sample program.
08:46 Here is an assignment for you -
