Perl sum and product example

In this Perl example I calculate the sum and product from a array:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;

#example data
my @array = (2, 17, 10, 9, 16, 3, 9, 16, 5, 1, 17, 14);

# test subs
print sum(@array)."n";
print product(@array)."n";

#calc sum
sub sum {
    my @array = @_;
    my $sum = 0;
    for(@array){$sum += $_;}
    return($sum);
}

#calc product
sub product {
    my @array = @_;
    my $product = 1;
    for(@array){$product *= $_;}
    return($product);
}

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;

#example data

my @array = (2, 17, 10, 9, 16, 3, 9, 16, 5, 1, 17, 14);

# test subs

print sum(@array)."n";

print product(@array)."n";

#calc sum

sub sum {

my @array = @_;

my $sum = 0;

for(@array){$sum += $_;}

return($sum);

}

#calc product

sub product {

my @array = @_;

my $product = 1;

for(@array){$product *= $_;}

return($product);

}

And we got our result:

119
25169356800

1 2	119 25169356800
