I need to use foreach loop to do comparison between two array of hashes. but I am not really know how to do this .
my original data:
NewData(file 1)
Puma
77777 33333 44444 55555
Adidas
99999 88888 55555 77777
22222 11111 33333 44444
Brooks
11111 22222 33333 44444
33333 44444 55555 66666
OldData(file 2)
Puma
77777 33333 44444 55555
Adidas
11111 11111 33333 44444
99999 88888 55555 77777
Brooks
11111 22222 33333 44444
33333 44444 55555 66666
my hash1:
'Adidas' => {
'y1' => [
'88888',
'11111'
],
'x2' => [
'55555',
'33333'
],
'y2' => [
'77777',
'44444'
],
'x1' => [
'99999',
'22222'
]
},
'Puma' => {
'y1' => [
'33333'
],
'x2' => [
'44444'
],
'y2' => [
'55555'
],
'x1' => [
'77777'
]
},
'Brooks' => {
'y1' => [
'22222',
'44444'
],
'x2' => [
'33333',
'55555'
],
'y2' => [
'44444',
'66666'
],
'x1' => [
'11111',
'33333'
]
}
};
my hash2:
$VAR1 = {
'Adidas' => {
'y1' => [
'11111',
'88888'
],
'x2' => [
'33333',
'55555'
],
'y2' => [
'44444',
'77777'
],
'x1' => [
'11111',
'99999'
]
},
'Puma' => {
'y1' => [
'33333'
],
'x2' => [
'44444'
],
'y2' => [
'55555'
],
'x1' => [
'77777'
]
},
'Brooks' => {
'y1' => [
'22222',
'44444'
],
'x2' => [
'33333',
'55555'
],
'y2' => [
'44444',
'66666'
],
'x1' => [
'11111',
'33333'
]
}
};
my attempt code for matching & non matching:
foreach my $newq (keys %hash1)
{
foreach my $oldq(keys %hash2)
{
if ( $newq eq $oldq)
{
foreach my $newx1(@{$hash1{$newq}{x1}})
{
foreach my $oldx1(@{$hash2{$oldq}{x1}})
{
if ($newx1 == $oldx1)
{
print "$newq\t$newx1\t$oldx1\n";
}
if ($newx1 != $oldx1)
{
print "$newq\t$newx1\t$oldx1\n";
}
}
my output for matching
New Old
Adidas 99999 99999
Puma 77777 77777
Brooks 11111 11111
Brooks 33333 33333
My output for non matching :
New Old
Adidas 99999 11111
Adidas 22222 11111
Adidas 22222 99999
Brooks 11111 33333
Brooks 33333 11111
Desired output for matching:
New Old
x1 y1 x2 y2 x1 y1 x2 y2
Puma 77777 33333 44444 55555 77777 33333 44444 55555
Adidas 99999 88888 55555 77777 99999 88888 55555 77777
Brooks 11111 22222 33333 44444 11111 22222 33333 44444
Brooks 33333 44444 55555 66666 33333 44444 55555 66666
Not matching
New Old
x1 y1 x2 y2 x1 y1 x2 y2
Adidas 22222 11111 33333 44444 11111 11111 33333 44444
I only use x1 to do some testing on the code to see if it could work. Now i can get the correct matching for x1. But i get the wrong output for 'non matching' . my expected output of 'non matching' for x1 is Adidas 22222 11111only because 'x1=> 99999' are presented in both new data and old data. And i am not sure how to continue with the 'y1, x2, and y2' ...
