Comments:
I have a script that needs to read information from a data file on the server.

The data file is actually the contents of a recursive array such that it contains an array in an array:

file content:
["a",1,2,3,5],
["b",1,2,3,5],
["c",1,2,3,5],
["d",1,2,3,5],

In the script:
I tried to load the file into a temp scalar and then assign it to an array.

I get the length of the array by scalar(@array); to see if the contents are assigned to the array and it returns the number of elements as it should.

However when I try to access individual elements like:

$var= $array[1]->[2];
print "$var";

the script runs but there is no output.

I would be most grateful if you could advise.

thanks

Sher
