Arithmatic operation in PERL

by Anonymous Monk
on Nov 19, 2001 at 21:34 UTC ( [id://126309]=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, Can u please give me a sample code for doing arithmatic operation in PERL. My data file contains records like this (record delimiter is *) : 
* Movie="ABC" show=4 
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 20

* Movie="XYZ" show=4 
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 10

* Movie ...
...
..

[download]
And the '* Movie...' that line is like a header for a record and the numbers like ( 10 20 30 in the first record) are stored in one individual line and so on, its not stored linear. I want to calculate the numbers which is equal to or more than 20 in that record, in this case in the first record i've to add (20+30+90+30+21+23+22+20) and so on for the remaining records. and i want to display the result in a ordinary tabular structure like this. 
Movie      Show     Collection>20   
ABC          4            256
XYZ          4            236

Can u please help me? Thanks.

    I'm afraid that I don't have the time to stop and explain this code, but it might get you started.

    #!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

my @films;
{
  local $/ = '* ';

  @films = <DATA>;
  chomp @films;
}

shift @films;

foreach (@films) {
  my ($header, $data) = split /\n/, $_, 2;

  if (my ($movie, $show)
        = $header =~ /Movie="(\w+)"\s+show=(\d+)/) {
    my @nums = grep { $_ >= 20 } $data =~ /(\d\d)/g;

    my $tot;
    $tot += $_ foreach @nums;

    print "$movie\t$show\t$tot\n";
  } else {
    print "Invalid Record: $_\n";
  }
}

__END__
* Movie="ABC" show=4
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 20

* Movie="XYZ" show=4
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 10

    Similar to davorg's (which is fine), but differing -- for demonstration purposes only -- in a few details, which are arguably obscure or inefficient. YMMV. 
    #!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
  # Slurp in the data, and place the records in an array.
my @recs;
{local $/; @recs = <DATA> =~ /(\*[^*]+)/g }
  # Collect info on each movie.
my %movies;
for (@recs) {
  s/Movie="([^"]+)" +show=(\d+)//;
  my ($movie, $show) = ($1, $2);
  my $tot = eval eval {join '+', grep $_ >= 20, /\d+/g};
  @{$movies{$movie}}{qw(show tot)} = ($show, $tot);
}
  # Print out the result.
print "Movie      Show     Collection >= 20\n";
for (keys %movies) {
  printf "%-8s %4d       %5d\n",
      $_, @{$movies{$_}}{qw(show tot)};
}

__END__

* Movie="ABC" show=4
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 20

* Movie="XYZ" show=4
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 10

    The other examples listed here certainly work fine but since there's more than one way to do it, here's mine. I avoid slurping the file since I prefer to read in a line at a time if I don't know how big the input is going to be. If your input file is very large then slurping could use up quite a lot of memory. Also, my solution works regardless of the number of lines of numbers following each data record. 
    #!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

#print header line for output table
print "Movie\t\tShow\t\tCollection>20\n";

LINE: while(<DATA>)
{
    chomp;
    #find the record header
    next LINE if not /Movie="(\w+)"\s+show=(\d+)/;
    my ($movie,$show) = ($1,$2);
    my @numbers = ();
    while (($_ = <DATA>) =~ /\d+\s+\d+/)
    {
        chomp;
        push @numbers, (split " ");
    }
    #filter out just the numbers >= 20
    @numbers = grep {$_ >= 20} @numbers;
    #add up the numbers
    my $total = 0;
    $total += $_ foreach @numbers;

    print "$movie\t\t$show\t\t$total\n";
}

__DATA__
* Movie="ABC" show=4 
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 20

* Movie="XYZ" show=4 
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 10

    Note that my solution produces different output than your example. You only count one occurrence of "22" on the last line but there are two. Is this by design? If so, you'd need to add a check to remove duplicate numbers (see How can I extract just the unique elements of an array? in perlfaq4).

    I'm slow again. This reads DATA (once), one line at a time, to populate '@movie'. Subroutine 'sum()' adds arrays of numbers. Otherwise, not much different from others.
    #!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

my @movie;
my $seen = 0;
my $collected;

while (<DATA>){

  if (my ($film,$show) = /^\*.+Movie="(.+)"\s*show=(\w+)/){
    
    push (@{$movie[$seen-1]},$collected) if $collected;
    
    $movie[$seen++] = [($film,$show)];
    
    $collected = 0;
  }
  else{

    my @take = grep { $_ >= 20} split /\s/;
  
    $collected = sum($collected,@take);
  }
}

push (@{$movie[$seen-1]},$collected) or die $!;

print "Movie\tShow\tSumCollection>20\n";
print "$_->[0]\t$_->[1]\t$_->[2]\n" for @movie;


# use Data::Dumper;
# print "\n\@movie Array looks like this: \n";
# print Dumper(\@movie);

sub sum
{
  my $x;
  for (@_){
    $x += $_;
  }
  return $x;
}

__DATA__
* Movie="ABC" show=4 
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 20

* Movie="XYZ" show=4 
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 10
