in reply to Ignore Case when comparing Hash Keys

Your description talks about comparing values, but your code doesn't. Also, comparing keys while ignoring case doesn't make the matching unique. What should the output be if 
%hash1 = ("John", 43, "jOHn", 42, "JOHN", 41);
%hash2 = ("john", 42);

    Thanks you for your response. You are right. But I am not comparing names in my code but I am comparing the Config attributes where we will always have unique names. For simplicity I just put the names in the example above.
