Re: Globbing for file in an unkown directory path only works first time in foreach loop?

my $info_desired_filepath = glob('/home/myfiles/day_of_year/'.$day_of_interest.'/data/desired_file.txt');

Since you only expect the glob to return 1 file, that line can be simplified as:

    my $info_desired_filepath = "/home/myfiles/day_of_year/$day_of_int
+erest/data/desired_file.txt";
