hmm .. it also looks like you're keeping track of the array indexes that you want to whack, then setting those array values to undef, then skipping over the undefs when you ouptut it. This can all be done natively w/ a simple grep.
my @customerarray = ( ... ); my $now = time; my @keep = grep { my ($timestamp) = (split '::', $_)[2]; $now - $timestamp <= 15*24*60*60 # items less than 15 days old } @customerarray; open FH, '>', "$cuslist.tmp" or die "Can't open $cuslist.tmp: $!"; print FH "$_\n" for @keep; close FH;

And can even collapse it further:
open FH, '>', "$cuslist.tmp" or die "Can't open $cuslist.tmp: $!"; print FH "$_\n" for grep { time - split '::', $_)[2] <= 15*24*60*60 } +@customerarray; close FH;

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
