I have tab delimited text file,which i split with tabs store it in array and display.One of the column data has a tab in between,so instead of taking the column data as a whole it splits that also,here is
my data
data name aliasname, alsoknown class type
output
data
name
aliasname,
alsoknown
class
type
what i want is
data
name
aliasname, alsoknown
class
type
here is the code that i have tried
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my $var;
open(FH,"sample.txt")or die("can't open file:$!");
while($var=<FH>)
{
my @vareach=split("\t",$var);
for my $each(@vareach)
{
print "$each\n";
}
}
any suggestions on how to split these kinds of data?

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).
