in reply to Re^2: iterate through a hash with two keys
in thread iterate through a hash with two keys

> I didn't ask the question properly.

indeed!

> I want to print all the labels and values for each of a .. h

DB<103> @hash{$_} = {x=>$x++,y=>$x++} for a..h => "" DB<112> while ( my ($k1,$v1) = each %hash ) { while ( my ($k2,$v2) = each %$v1 ) { print "$k1 - $k2 -$v2\n" } } e - y -25 e - x -24 a - y -17 a - x -16 d - y -23 d - x -22 ... # and so on

But are you looking for Data::Dumper ?

UPDATE

DB<106> print Dumper \%hash $VAR1 = { 'e' => { 'y' => 9, 'x' => 8 }, 'a' => { 'y' => 1, 'x' => 0 }, 'd' => { 'y' => 7, 'x' => 6 }, 'c' => { 'y' => 5, 'x' => 4 }, ...

FWIW I prefer Data::Dump or YAML¹, but Data::Dumper is core.

¹) interesting Module::Build::YAML was first released with perl 5.009004

UPDATE YAML
DB<106> use YAML::Tiny => 0 DB<107> Dump(\%hash) --- a: x: 16 y: 17 b: x: 18 y: 19 c: x: 20 y: 21 d: x: 22 y: 23 ...

    doing it like this:
    my @array = qw( FirstName LastName MiddleName LegalInd DateOfBirth Sex Race Ethnicity Height Weight Build Eyes Hair SocSecNo MaritalStatus PlaceOfBirthCit +y PlaceOfBirthState AddressType DfAdate StreetNumber StreetName StreetType City State Zip ); for (@array) { $xml_writer->dataElement("$_" => $t{A}{$_}); }

      Doing what?

      (Do you speak English?)

      Look I've shown you code iterating thru the whole structure.

      If you can't express your problem in proper words, you are still free to adapt the two nested loops to your needs.
