Re^2: Population of HoAoA based on file contents

So you want (?):

$data{HG00554}[162] = (0 0, 0 0, ... , 0 0 )

I'm hoping you've come to understand why you don't want to use the shift in:

$data{$individual}[ [ shift @snp_bins ] ] = $snp;

Assuming so, you could do something like:

for my $index ( 0 .. $#snp_bins ){
  push( @{$data{HG00554}[$snp_bins[$index]]}, $snps[$index] );
}

I hope this is helpful, I'm still not convinced I'm understanding what exactly you're needing.

I think I'm on the right track now. I can see what was wrong with my original code, and I think that the structure you show above should be what I'm looking for.

Let me work on it some more (and re-read more carefully the relevant Perl documentation), then if I still have problems I'll either add another comment below or start a fresh post (I won't have much time to work on it until next week, however). Thanks for all your help.
