is there a compact way to initialize this array?

[DaLoverhino]

I want to initialize an array with 100 empty strings.

I can use a loop, but is there a more compact way to do so?

thanks.

my @empty = ('') x 100 ;

and you likely don't need to do that if you are appending text as each
entry will autovivify. .= works cleanly and quietly (no warnings) on
undef values.
