(...) Yep, that's the impression I got. The 2 people I know who passed it probably know half what I know and they thought it was cake. (...) Thanks!

(...) Dunno - is that a rhetorical question? I'm not sucking much money at all out of the industry right now, although I hope to be sucking a lot more (DO NOT quote that out of context John Neal) out of it within the next 6 months.

(...) Try this: $string = lc $string; Alternatively, I think this will work also: $string =~ tr/[A-Z]/[a-z]/; But if you *REALLY* want to make it look impressive (to a 1st-year programmer anyway :-), you could do: @upchars = qw( A B C D E F G H I J (...)
