[Israel.pm] Why am I not printing getting results? What am Imissing

[Levenglick Dov-RM07994]

This worked. Why can't I eliminate the $tmp in the subroutine? 

use strict;
use warnings;

use Net::Ping;
use threads;

my $num_pings = 10;
my $host = "223.31.95.254";
my $errors = 0;

map {threads->create(\&single_ping, $host)} (1..$num_pings);
map {$errors++ unless $_->join()} (threads->list());
exit $errors;

sub single_ping
{
	my $p = Net::Ping->new();
	my $tmp = $p->ping(shift);
	return $tmp;
}

try this first:

use strict;
use warnings;

use Net::Ping;

my $p = Net::Ping->new();
       return $p->ping(223.31.95.254);

check if it works....then apply the thread stuff.
Also i think the shift is misplaced...i think you should use the $_
in the subroutine, since i can't tell if it not changed when using
my $p = Net::Ping->new();

also did you try apply a simple ping from command line - see if it works
