See other replies for solutions to your sorting problem.

What I wish to respond to is this nonsense:

I don't have access to install any modules that are not already installed on the system, so please don't suggest a module.

You certainly can install any modules you like, "access" or no "access". You just can't make them available to others unless you have some sort of root access.

Read the FAQ answer:

perldoc -q "How do I keep my own module/library directory?"

for details.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
