(bbfu) (AoA?) Re: how do I open each line of a text file into seperate arrays?

This is an archived low-energy page for bots and other anonmyous visitors. Please sign up if you are a human and want to interact.

You could use an array of arrays:

# open FILE
while(<FILE>) {
  # The []'s make an anonymous array, so each element
  # of @lines is actually an array-ref.
  push @lines, [split /\|/, $_];
}

print "Yep.\n" if $lines[0][0] eq 'foo'; # it will
[download]

HTH.

Upd: oops, fixed my array indexes. :-)

Upd2: damn, what was I thinking? Changed @lines = [...] to proper push.

Upd3: ARGH!!! Thanks for the eq catch, buckaduck. That's what I get when I try to rush a post... :-(
