list concatenation

[EchoCola]

Hey guys, wanted to know how to concatenate two lists. I looked around and only saw examples using scalaras with the .= operation.
I would like to concatenate for example:

@list_1 = ('my','dog');
@list_2 = ('is','lazy');
@final_list = "insert code here"

print @final_list;

Output: "my dog is lazy"

Try this:

my @list_1 = ('my','dog');
my @list_2 = ('is','lazy');
my @final_list = (@list_1, @list_2);
print "@output";

Hey rharsh thanks for the comment, i tried that, and it prints out "1". I solved it by using the join() function

$final_list = join( ',',@list_1,@list_2);

#Where the first parameter in join is the delimter.

the interesting this, now after i do that it removes the '',s so

print $final_list;

gives me "my dog is lazy"

however the output im looking for is

'my','dog','is','lazy'

In your original example, you put the contents of list_1 and list_2. In your last example, it appears you're using a scalar. Which are you trying to use? Another question is, do you actually want the single quotes around all your strings?

foreach(@list1) {
 push @list3, $_;
}
foreach(@list2) {
 push @list3, $_;
}

There's gotta be an easier way to concat arrays, but this should do till you find it

Yes I would like to have all the quotes around the values. I put the results into a scalar because it has to be in that format when i pass it into another fucntion

Nevermind what i said before, i don't need the quotes... case closed
