Just a point that I didn't see made in any of the other responses, although broquaint's code doesn't have this problem:
scalar @array
returns the number of things in the array; but since arrays are 0 indexed, that means that on the last iteration of the loop
for( 0..scalar(@x_values) )
you're accessing undefined values in the two arrays you're attempting to coordinate. Perl may be complaining about that if you have warnings on, and if this processing takes place before you output the headers, you might be confuzling your web server. For that reason and others:
for( 0 .. $#x_values )
is a better way to write it ( $#ARRAY_NAME is the value of the last index of the array with name ARRAY_NAME ).
If not P, what? Q maybe? "Sidney Morgenbesser"

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).
