moving an element out of many arrays Can't Post
I have 3 arrays: A_tmp,B_tmp,C_tmp.
I want to move out all the occurance of the character "#" from those arrays.

I wrote this code. Can I do it shortly (maybe without creating 3 more arrays)?

foreach (@A_tmp) {
push (@A,$_) if ($_ ne "#");
}
foreach (@B_tmp) {
push (@B,$_) if ($_ ne "#");
}
foreach (@C_tmp) {
push (@C,$_) if ($_ ne "#");
}

@A_tmp = grep { $_ ne '#' } @A_tmp;

That's only using one array, I think you mean...

Code
@tmp = grep { $_ ne '#' } (@A_tmp, @B_tmp, @C_tmp);

No, I don't :-) Your solution leaves him with only one array afterwards, and the "source" arrays are unmodified. If that's what he wants -- fine, but I think he wants to keep his three arrays and just modify them in place.

I took this to mean he only wanted one resulting array.
