Re: Array to Array of hashes

in reply to Array to Array of hashes

There are at least 2 issues:

@data is an array, but is being assigned an array-REF. Use Parens(), instead of square brackets[] for the outermost delimiter
the "for" statement aliases $_ to each element. So in you case, you should be using $_ as the index, instead of your hard-coded "1" and "2"
A perl programmer would prefer "for (@data)" instead of "for (0..$#data)"

The best defense against logic is ignorance.

The data was a Dump from the array @data, but how you were saying, how would you use "$_" instead of assigning or hard-code "1" and "2" ... to the code? `my @data = ( ["John","10/30","Main Street"], ["Mary","6/1","Oak Street"] # more data here ); foreach (@data) { push @AoH, { NAME => $_, DOB => $_, ADDRESS => $_, } }` [download] Thanks!
