Your data listed is by column or by line? I assume it is as columns per line:

00101100 00101101 11H00101 HHHHHHHH 01011001 LLLLLLLL 1011010L 0110111L 00000000 00111111

If by column, you will need to split them into "columns" (array) and process it one by one. Assume separator character is "space", use (@columns) = split(/ /, $dataline);

Using regex may do the trick faster, but I would use my approach above for easier understanding and future expansion flexibility.

If your data is in file, which I assume is text file with 10 columns per line, then you just need loop thru the file to process each line's columns.
