Perl Script

[biobrain]

Dear All,

I need some help in writing a perl script.

Here is a pseudo code

!/usr/bin/perl -w

system (./spd.pl)

IF system (./spd.pl) execute or true then

system (./spd2.pl ) ElSE exit/die,

Please help me writing this small script.

Regards

my $result = system (./spd.pl);

If the system call exits successfully, $result will be 0. If there was an error, it'll be something else.

For executing other perl scripts, stick with "do"

[url=http://perldoc.perl.org/functions/do.html][black][b]do[/b][/black][/url] [red]'[/red][purple]spd.pl[/purple][red]'[/red][red];[/red]

Dealing with all possible error contingencies is included in the documentation for the function.
