Need Help??

in thread splitting arrays

So are you saying that inside that line of 50 items (I'm assuming you're using the term "bits" to mean "things" not 0 or 1) there are newline characters? If so, what is the line termination character - how do you know when you need to start on the next "line".

sadly, there is no "line" termination character, i only know when to start the next one after 50 tab-delimited 'things' have been found	[reply]

if newlines are considered part of the data: (untested) `{ local $/="\t"; my $i = 0; my @arr = (); while ( <FILE> ) { push @{$arr[$i++%50]}, $_; } }` [download] This should (note that the code is untested) give you an array of array references that each contain 50 items (except possibly the last array ref). Does that do what you wanted? -------------- "But what of all those sweet words you spoke in private?" "Oh that's just what we call pillow talk, baby, that's all."	[reply] [d/l]
