How to use splice function to add two arrays 1

[dino25]

I would like to use the splice function to add two arrays together ..ie array1 and array3 without removing any elements.

push @array3, @array1

no, I want to use splice to insert array2 in the middle of array1

Did you read the docs on splice? perldoc -f splice

my @a1 = qw/0 1 2 3 4 8 9 10/;
my @a2 = qw/5 6 7/;

print "BEFORE: ", join(" ", @a1), "\n";
splice @a1, 5, 0, @a2;
print "AFTER: ", join(" ", @a1), "\n";

although this code makes good sense but it still would not put @a2 in the middle of @a1 but rather at the end. Even though the offset is right at the middle.

It works fine. Did you actually try it?

BEFORE: 0 1 2 3 4 8 9 10
AFTER: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
