Searching directory (Perl)

Hiyas,

How do I search a directory (let's call it '/asdf' to set things straight :)) for all ".txt" files using CGI/Perl? The directory is a subdirectory of the directory where the CGI/Perl script is located. I want the results (the results being the filenames of all ".txt" files in the '/asdf' directory) stored in an array. I can't figure this out... Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance,

-Git

Code:

---

chdir 'asdf' or die $!;
my @file_names = glob '*.txt';

---

Cool - thanks for that!

BTW, one more (and hopefully final) question about Perl... How do I delete the entire contents of an array, aka remove all the array's elements?

Thanks again,

-Git

There are many different ways, the simplest being to just assign an empty list. But these all do the same thing.

Code:

---

@a = ();
$#a = -1;
undef @a;
