Re^3: Generating Hash-of-List using map?

Oh, #@%$Ł"!

I admit defeat. A sort is probably not what the OP specified. One could build a full temporary hash in the map but that would be cheating as well (also relies on $a not been used for anything else before):

my %hash = map { /^([^-]*)-(.*)$/; exists $$a{$1}? (push(@{$$a{$1}},$2
+) and ()): ( $1=>$$a{$1}=[$2] ) } @CELLS;

So there is really no way around first declaring the hash and then filling it. What a pity!

  DB<113> @CELLS = ("A-1", "B-2", "C-3", "A-4", "B-5", "C-6", "A-7", "
+B-8", "C-9")
 => ("A-1", "B-2", "C-3", "A-4", "B-5", "C-6", "A-7", "B-8", "C-9")

  DB<114> %hash = map { /^([^-]*)-(.*)$/; if( $1 eq ($a//'-') ) { push
+ @$b, $2; () } else { ( $a = $1 => $b = [ $2 ] ) } } sort @CELLS;
