in reply to Re^3: max "value " of an hash
in thread max "value " of an hash

Hi Khariton,

Yes you are right, for my previous node I just show how to get the maximum value in a hash. Now, I had updated the code, that will get the maximum value, as well as the corresponding keys.

# get values with numerical sort @values = sort {$a<=>$b} values %hash; # process each element foreach (keys %hash) { # get the key name of the maximum value print "\nkey : $_ : value $hash{$_}" if ($values[$#values] == $has +h{$_}); }
