Hi guys,
I basically have 2 arrays(populated from input file) and all i have to do is, search the values from one array and see if it is there in the other and record the no of occurrences as well. my main query array has 375 values and my other search array has 73372 values. so the number of searches totally will be 27514500 on the worst case and it taking ages to finish running the program. I do have to also include more functions to this script and im afraid how long that is going to take more. Please advice me why my program is so slow and any other alternative ideas that i could use.
sample values of @gl
CD9
TBN
NANOG
KITL
FUT4
SALL4
MYC
STAT3
ESRRB
AKP2
SOX2
POU5F1
KLF4
sample of @hfr_genes
LYPLA1

my code:
do
{
if( my$index_gl=grep{$hfr_genes[$_]=~/^$gl[$index]$/}0..$#hfr_gene
+s)
{
print TEST "Val $gl[$index] is present $index_gl times\n";
$index++;
}
else
{
$index++;
}
}
until ($index==(scalar(@hfr_genes)));
please help! thanks

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).
