Reference of table of hask

hi,

I have a table of hash

my @Tab = (
{ cour => '001', heure => '10:20', date =>
'01/01/2006' },
{ cour => '002', heure => '10:20', date =>
'01/01/2006' },
);


and for add elements I want to push new emements in a SUB function. like
this :
addElement(\@Tab);

sub addElement {
my ?????? = shift;
}

How can I declare this variable ?

Thank

Lactarius.

More commonly named "array of hashes".

First you need something to add. Let's assume you have:

my $element = {
cour => '003',
heure => '10:20',
date => '01/01/2006',
};

Then you can do:

addElement( \@Tab, $element );

sub addElement {
my ($tabref, $element) = @_;
push @$tabref, $element;
}

Suppose you'd better read up on references and data structures.

Good luck!
