You can put multiple conditions in the sort, using the || operator, so that when the first rule is equal (ie, =0), the second rule will kick in, otherwise take the first rule.
$strings{"E1,E2"} = 1;
$strings{"E1,E3"} = 3;
$strings{"E1,E4"} = 2;
$strings{"E1,E5"} = 3;
$strings{"E1,E6"} = 3;
$strings{"E1,E7"} = 5;
$strings{"E1,E8"} = 1;
$strings{"E1,E9"} = 0;
$strings{"E1,E10"} = 12;
my @sorted =
map { $_->[0] }
sort { ($b->[2] <=> $a->[2]) || ($a->[1] <=> $b->[1]) }
map {
my $old_key = $_;
# transform my keys so I can compare them as digits
my ($k1, $k2) = $old_key =~ /(\d)/g;
my $new_key = sprintf("%04d%04d", $k1, $k2);
[ $old_key, $new_key, $strings{$old_key} ]
} keys %strings;
print map{ "$_ = $strings{$_}\n" } @sorted;

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).
