Re: Unexpected deletion of data using > operator

[n3toy]

Not initializing a variable is something that has bitten me before! And, of course I assume right away it is my code or logic and not something simple. (Usually, it ends up being a combination of both!)

Would this snippet meet your needs?:

foreach my $line (@customerarray) {
    my ($memono, $cusref, $datestamp) = split '::', $line;
    if ( ($timestamp - $datestamp) > 1296000 ) {
        next;
    } else {
        $line = $line . $line . "\n";
    }    
}

print FH "$item";

I hope this is somewhat helpful.

Thanks for your input, but surely bringing $item out of a hat at the end is what you were criticising me for in the first place?? :)

davidrw's reply above (the most compressed version) removes the problem (typo not withstanding), simply by copying and pasting over my previous code. Therefore there must be a problem in that code, but I have not yet found it. Cheers.

Whoops... Add: use MagicHat; to the top of the snippet. :-)

This will teach me to test code before posting.
