Assuming that @rebasefile is an array you can skip the first 10 indices in a couple of ways
foreach (@rebasefile[10..$#rebasefile]){ # skips the first ten automat
+ically
next if(/^\s*$/);
...
}
# alternately if you don't want the overhead of creating an array slice
foreach (@rebasefile){
next for (0..9); # of course, this has overhead of its own
next if(/^\s*$/);
...
}
I haven't checked which implementation is faster. I suspect that for just 10 elements, there is a non-measurable difference. If you were ignoring 100 or more elements, the slice is probably more efficient.
Update: Ignore the second loop. Never get smug before your first cup of coffee.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
