Hi,
It should all be indented if you did it right :) (which it isn't). Could be your code isn't indented in Notepad?
Anyway, to answer your question:
this is basically looking at each value of @players, and checking if the value matched $name. Its a shorthand way of doing something like:
if ($_ eq $name) {
print "its a match!"
}
}
Cheers
