Perl

I'm learning Perl from a Tutorial and it was teaching here-documents, and gave an example. So i copied it, here is the code: ```markup#!/usr/bin/perl #heredoc.pl use warnings; print<<EOF;

This is an example of a here-document.

EOF```and then tried to execute in in command prompt but an error comes up and says: Can't find string terminator "EOF" anywhere before EOF at C:\Perl\Basic Programs\heredoc.pl line 4.

My code is the same as in the tut, but why do i get an error? end3r

www.google.com - answer to everything in the world..

do you think i'm an idiot? really, im not that stupid, but im looking for help, for someone to try it or read it and tell me whats wrong with it and obviously you cant. google is where i found the tut. end3r

change print<<EOF; to print("EOF");

get rid of "this is an example of a here-document

EOF"

bl4ckc4t: Why do you insist on posting utterly useless shit? :p

end3r: Want to know what your problem is? Well.. it is a secret, but I guess I'll share it.. simply hit enter at the end of your script so there is a newline after EOF :happy:

Utterly useless?

Perl is my main language.

Ok.. well than I hate to say it, but you obviously don't know your main language too well :p. He's trying to use Heredoc and your comment made absolutely no sense and WAS utterly pointless, all that is necessary is that he include a newline at the end of his script in order for it to recognize the end label.:ninja::happy::angry:
