I think the best start is perldsc, or some other text on anonymous data structures. This is not something that you can learn "asap", but you can start now.	[reply]

Huh? You first say "so, what kind of hash should this be ? The link you said has a list of all sorts of hashes." and then, 17 minutes later, go on to say "Thks.. This is helpful... I think I found my implementation already reading this:-> " (Exact quotes included in case the nodes get edited.) What has changed? The main reason I ask is because others may have the same trouble you have had and they will be able to follow your trail if you provide the resources to. And you didn't even know bears could type.

You can initialize your hash with: `%hash = ();` [download] And access it later on (after it is populated) in a loop like so: `foreach $key (keys %hash) { print $hash{$key} . "\n"; }` [download] You can also look around the Monastery. This might be some good reading for you: QandASection: hashes Jamie	[reply] [d/l] [select]
