Task #1



Write a script to find the intersection of two straight lines. The co-ordinates of the two lines should be provided as command line parameter. For example:

The two ends of Line 1 are represented as co-ordinates (a,b) and (c,d).

The two ends of Line 2 are represented as co-ordinates (p,q) and (r,s).

The script should print the co-ordinates of point of intersection of the above two lines.



Task #2



Write a script that allows you to capture/display historical data. It could be an object or a scalar. For example

my $x = 10; $x = 20; $x -= 5;

After the above operations, it should list $x historical value in order.
