Re^2: Words and Numbers to hash

this worked for the most part however, the first value I am getting is:

$VAR1 = 'Opp Avg Score Margin';
$VAR2 = '10.8'; 
...

Instead of all the stuff leading up to it:

Points/Game 80.5 
Opp Points/Game 69.7 
Avg Score Margin 10.8
[download]

Why would you think that would be?

... the first value I am getting ... You may be expecting the hash to preserve the order of the fields extracted from the string. It won't. The only 'order' in a hash is the key/value paring of each hash element. You must somehow impose your own order on top of this inherent order. Perhaps see Tie::IxHash.	[reply]
