More than likely
1.) the file doesn't exist
2.) you don't have read permissions
You might have meant "./test.txt" which will read the file from your current
directory instead of the root directory.

Hi
I am a student an I'm new to Perl. For a university assignment I need to
read the contents of a text file in an array. I am using Windows. The code I
am writing is:
$file = "/test.txt";
open (INFO, "$file");
@lines = <INFO>;
close(INFO);
Altough this is supposed to work, I am getting a ''readline() on closed
filehand INFO at line 3' message when I interpret it with perl -w. Please
Help
