Title
Body
I am trying to collect the values from command line using Getopt::Std in my Perl script. use Getopt::Std; $Getopt::Std::STANDARD_HELP_VERSION = 1; getopts('i:o:p:'); my $inputfile = our $opt_i; my $outputfile = our $opt_o; my $parameter_value = our $opt_p; Here the first two variables ($inputfile,$outputfile) are mandatory but the last variable ($parameter_value) is optional and can be ignored. I am trying to set some value by default to the last variable ($parameter_value) when the -p flag is ignored at the command line. I tried using this: my $parameter_value = our $opt_p || "20"; Here its passes the correct value when -p flag is ignored at command line. But the problem is when I am providing some value from the command line (for instance -p 58), the same value 20 is passed to the program instead of 58 which I passed from command line. Can you please help me out by pointing the mistakes I am making here? Thank you.
