in reply to Re^3: sort a hash with split values
in thread sort a hash with split values

Perhaps that was a little harsh, the OP said they did not understand it and was trying to get it to work. And you mocked the followup response in the chatterbox.

For those reasons I had to downvote you. We should be a little more supportive to the little people :)

Back to the OP, all you need to change is

map { [ $_, (split/:/,$hash{$_})[1] ] }
to
map { [ $_, (split/:/,$hash{$_})[2] ] }
