Re: looking for a perl way to build a hash

[choroba]

TIMTOWTDI:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;

use Data::Dumper;

my $str1 = 'a,b,c';
my $str2 = '1,2,3';

my ($strA, $strB) = ($str1, $str2);
$strA =~ s/,/',' . do { $strB =~ s=([^,]+),==; $1 } . ','/eg;

my %hash2 = split /,/ => "$strA,$strB";
print Dumper \%hash2;

Update: Or, without a regex:

my ($strA, $strB) = ("$str1,", "$str2,");
my %hash = map { map substr($_, 0, -1),
                 map substr($_, 0, 1 + index($_, ','), q()),
                 $strA, $strB;
               } 1 .. $strA =~ tr/,//;

print Dumper \%hash;

Not recommended for production code.
