Re: How to count substitutions on an array

[Limbic~Region]

Anonymous Monk,
Why are you trying to cram everything into a single line?

my $count = 0;
for (@array) {
    #  I've had no difficulty counting substitutions on individual lin
+e replacements
    # my $individual_line_replacement_count = ...;
    $count += $individual_line_replacement_count;
}

I didn't know how to do it in any way other than a *nested* "foreach" loop. On an array with tens of thousands of items, and needing to iterate through the entire array for a list of thousands of words/phrases, I might have been waiting a long time.

I wish it were easier to search online for specific coding issues with programming. Sigh.

Your solution works for me. Thank you very much.
