( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Okay, it is ugly, but it works:
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; my %result; while(<DATA>) { m#(\d{2})/(\d{2})/(\d{4})#; $result{$3. $2. $1} = $_; }; my $highest = $result{(sort keys %result)[-1]}; print $highest, "\n"; exit; __DATA__ Record 0: Coll 02/14/2003 Charles S. 2862.30 00000 ISSUE WWW Record 1: Coll 03/17/2003 Peter C. 392.50 00000 ISSUE WWW Record 2: Coll 07/25/2003 John K. 10.00 00000 ISSUE CCC

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
