If the length of some_array is 101 then the code below gives an illegal divide by zero error, but when the length of the array is 102 it's fine. I noticed that 101 results in a float and 102 results in a whole number. Maybe that has something to do with or maybe it's because the length of the array is unknown ahead of time. I'm not sure.

my $result = $some_value / scalar(split(",", $some_array[0]));
