    "without a singl loop"

    Direct hash lookups indeed work without loops.

    So how can i correct my mistake ?

    which mistake? Got some error? Some code, apart from that multilevel hash lookup?

    From what you say I figure you mean

    my $x = $hash{$valueM}{$key};

    because you say "where the mainKey equals $valueM". As you have written that multilevel hash lookup, the string contained in $valueM would be one key in an anonymous hash stored as the value for the key 'mainKey' in the hash %hash. I guess that's different to what you wrote. But how can I know? I know what I mean. Why don't you?

    --shmem

    _($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                                  /\_¯/(q    /
    ----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
    ");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}

    If I read your question correctly, it is very simple:
    $x = $hash{$valuem};
    The solution you provided implies: a hash with the key 'mainKey', whose value is a reference to a hash with the key in $valueM, whose value is a reference to a hash with the key 'key'.

    What are you quoting? A homework assignment?

    I guess that you want something like this:
    use strict; use warnings; my $valueM = 'myvalue'; my $hashref; $$hashref{mainKey}{$valueM}{key} = 'value';

    or
    my %hash; $hash{key} = 'value'; ...
