Answer Posted / pallavi
Chop function removes the last character of any specified
string or variable and returns the chopped data.
Ex: $a="abcdefghijkla";
$b= chop($a);
print $a;
Output - abcdefghijkl
Where as chomp removes all the new line at the end of any
specified string or variable and returns nothing.
