Combining Variables

[jonnymp316]

Hello
I just wanted to know how do you combine two variables:
for instance:
my $firstname="fred";
my $lastname="flintstone";
my $wholename=$firstname + $lastname;
print $wholename;

can someone give me and example of something that will do that.

$first = "Fred";
$last = "Flintstone";
$fullname = "$first $last";
print $fullname;

Usually concatenation is done using the "." operator

$fullname=$firstname." ". $surname
