$#test is the array location of the last scalar in the array. Ie
'$#test+1' = length of the array - also found with 'scalar @test'.

Thus $test[$#test-1] will return you the second last element in the
array (as long as there are more than 1 scalars in the array ($#test>0).

Guys,

I think that for array:  @test  , $#test would indicate the last scalar
(ie 
@test[last number]in the array. (please correct me if i am wrong there)

Id there a way I can indicate the 2nd last scalar in the array?

Cheers oh mighty Perl gods.
