Exercises for Feb 22


1. Create a brief Perl script that demonstrates your knowledge of variables and arrays. The script should do the following:

a. Define an array called “names” that contains the following information: Jack, Sawyer, Freckles, Ben, Sun

b. Use a loop to cycle through each element of the array and print the following statement on separate lines: the current name indexed in the loop + “ is not one of the Oceanic 6.”

In other words, the “output” should look something like this:

Jack is not one of the Oceanic 6.
Sawyer is not one of the Oceanic 6. [and so on]


2. Create a simple 3 item questionnaire using radio buttons as your input field. However, store the questionnaire items inside an array and reference them via the array to print the questionnaire items to the user’s screen.


3. Modify your self-esteem questionnaire script so that, as output to the user, the script computes a sample mean and a sample standard deviation. Finally, the script should provide the user with his or her z-score.
