    Your specification is very unlclear. That is what I made of it: you want to keep a tuple in both arrays if the number in the top array (key) appears only once or the corresponding value from array 2 is greater than all corresponding values to the same key.
    #!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; my @array = qw(-20 20 1 1 2 2 2 9 3 -4 -4 5 -20 20 7 7 7); my @array1 = qw( 10 11 7 9 3 3 3 1 3 4 5 5 1 30 8 7 8); my %hash; for my $i (0 .. $#array) { my $first = $array[$i]; my $second = $array1[$i]; if (not exists $hash{$first}{highest}) { # The key seen for the first time. $hash{$first}{highest} = $second; } else { # The highest value seen again. $hash{$first}{delete} = 1 if $second == $hash{$first}{highest} +; # A new highest value. if ($second > $hash{$first}{highest}) { $hash{$first}{highest} = $second; $hash{$first}{delete} = 0; } } } # Delete repeated max values. for my $key (keys %hash) { delete $hash{$key} if $hash{$key}{delete}; } my (@output, @output1); for my $i (0 .. $#array) { if (exists $hash{ $array[$i] } and $array1[$i] == $hash{ $array[$i] }{highest}) { push @output, $array[$i]; push @output1, $array1[$i]; } } print "@output\n@output1\n";

    Updated : Fixed a bug, added 7 to show the problem (the previous version did not delete 7 because there was a lesser value).

      ... what I made of it ...

      My congratulations and a ++ if you made anything at all of it. I could make nothing whatsoever, especially of the  , , and  , , , bits in the output array examples.

      Very good

      But i need

      @output = ( -20, , ,1, , , ,9,3, ,-4, 5, ,20); @output1 = ( 10, , ,9, , , ,1,3, , 5, 5, ,30); $#array==$#array1==$#output==$#output1
        Please, be more precise. Even if Perl can "do what you mean", sometimes you have to be careful.
        @long = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5); @sparse = (1, , , 4, ); @short = (1, 4); print "Equals\n" if $#long == $#sparse; print "Shorter\n" if $#short == $#sparse;
        لսႽ† ᥲᥒ⚪⟊Ⴙᘓᖇ Ꮅᘓᖇ⎱ Ⴙᥲ𝇋ƙᘓᖇ

        In that case you can add an else block to the code generating the arrays @output and @output1 in choroba's code.

        my (@output, @output1); for my $i (0 .. $#array) { if (exists $hash{ $array[$i] } and $array1[$i] == $hash{ $array[$i] }{highest}) { push @output, $array[$i]; push @output1, $array1[$i]; } else { push @output, ''; # or use spaces ' ' here push @output1, ''; # or whatever you want } }

    When I saw your title, I thought "hash."

    But when I read your spec, I found an entirely different question. So what is the rule/logic by which you have determined that the process should behave as in your spec, and how does that relate to the data you've shown.

    Could you please explain the rules a little more clearly?

    Here is an answer as cryptic (and somewhat wasteful) as your requirements (ignoring LanX extras):

    use warnings; use strict; my @array = qw(-20 20 1 1 2 2 2 9 3 -4 -4 5 -20 20 7 7 7); my @array1 = qw( 10 11 7 9 3 3 3 1 3 4 5 5 1 30 8 7 8); for( map{ my $k=$_; [ sort{ $array1[$b]<=>$array1[$a] } grep{ $k eq $a +rray[$_] } 0..$#array ] } @array ) { shift @$_ if @$_==1 or $array1[$$_[0]] ne $array1[$$_[1]]; $array[$_] = $array1[$_] = '' for @$_; } $"=','; print "\@output = (@array);\n\@output1 = (@array1);\n";
      maybe less cryptic?

      DB<154> @a0 = (-20,20,1,1,2,2,2,9,3,-4,-4,5,-20,20); => (-20, 20, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 9, 3, -4, -4, 5, -20, 20) DB<155> @a1 = ( 10,11,7,9,3,3,3,1,3, 4, 5,5, 1,30); => (10, 11, 7, 9, 3, 3, 3, 1, 3, 4, 5, 5, 1, 30) DB<156> map { push @{$group{$a0[$_]}},$a1[$_] } 0..$#a0 DB<157> sub highlander { my @sort = sort @{ shift() } ; return $sort[-1]>$sort[0] ? $sort[-1] : undef } DB<158> @high{keys %group } = map { highlander($_) } values %group => (undef, 5, undef, undef, 30, 9, 10, undef) DB<159> map { ($a0[$_],$a1[$_])=() if $a1[$_] != $high{ $a0[$_] } } +0..$#a0 DB<160> \@a0 => [ -20, undef, undef, 1, undef, undef, undef, undef, undef, undef, -4, undef, undef, 20, ] DB<161> \@a1 => [ 10, undef, undef, 9, undef, undef, undef, undef, undef, undef, 5, undef, undef, 30, ]

        I do not understand the line $sort[-1]>$sort[0] ? $sort[-1] : undef. What if the values are 7, 8, 8? How will it discard the whole thing? I know the OPs spec is rather cryptic but my understanding was, that the values are to be blanked out if the max occurs more than once.

    This one assumes integer values:

    use strict; use warnings; # Including choroba's sevens. my @array = qw(-20 20 1 1 2 2 2 9 3 -4 -4 5 -20 20 7 7 7); my @array1 = qw( 10 11 7 9 3 3 3 1 3 4 5 5 1 30 8 7 8); # Tuple of array elements as "key"/"val" pairs. my @pairs; # Max "val" for each "key". my %max; for (0..$#array) { my $key = $array[$_]; my $val = $array1[$_]; my $max = $max{$key}; push @pairs, [$key, $val]; if (defined $max) { next if $val < $max; # For the "2"/"3" pairs. Only want "highlander" max, so # increase by a fraction (assumes integers in @array1). $val += 0.5 if $val == $max; } $max{$key} = $val; } my (@output, @output1); for (@pairs) { my ($key, $val) = @$_; next unless $val == $max{$key}; push @output, $key; push @output1, $val; } say join ',', map sprintf('%3d', $_), @$_ for \@output, \@output1; __END__ -20, 1, 9, 3, -4, 5, 20 10, 9, 1, 3, 5, 5, 30

      Very good

      Thank you

    > -20 because 10>1

    > 20 because 11<30

    > 2 delete all

    Wait! On Wednesdays invert the result!

    > Keep the highest element

    except on Ramadan!

    > Very good

    > Thank you

    your welcome! =)

    use List::MoreUtils qw{uniq}; my @array = uniq (-20, 20, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 9, 3, -4, -4, 5, -20, 20, 7 +, 7, 7); foreach (@array){print "$_, "};
