Like everyone says--whenever you need to do a lookup in Perl: Think hashes,

#! perl -slw use strict; use Data::Dumper; my @gene_score = ( [ "gene_name_0", "score_0" ], [ "gene_name_1", "score_1" ], # ... [ "gene_name_400", "score_400" ] ); my @gene_start_stop_chr = ( [ "gene_name_0", "start_0", "stop_0", "chr_0" ], [ "gene_name_1", "start_1", "stop_1", "chr_1" ], # ... [ "gene_name_400", "start_400", "stop_400", "chr_400" ], [ "gene_name_30000", "start_30000", "stop_30000", "chr_30000 +" ] ); ## Build a hash from the lookup array my %gene_start_stop_chr = map{ $_->[ 0 ] => [ @{ $_ }[ 1 .. 3 ] ] } @gene_start_stop_chr; ## Use it to map the inputs to results my @results = map{ [ $_->[ 0 ], $_->[ 1 ], @{ $gene_start_stop_chr{ $_->[ 0 ] } } ] } @gene_score; print Dumper \@results; __END__ P:\test>377857 $VAR1 = [ [ 'gene_name_0', 'score_0', 'start_0', 'stop_0', 'chr_0' ], [ 'gene_name_1', 'score_1', 'start_1', 'stop_1', 'chr_1' ], [ 'gene_name_400', 'score_400', 'start_400', 'stop_400', 'chr_400' ] ];

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.
