It only goes into the array once, it gets printed multiple times. Erase this

foreach (@output) {
                print "Round $i\n " ;
                print "$_\n" ;
                $i++ ;
               sleep(1) ;
            }

foreach (@output) {
  print "$_\n" ;
  }

Thank you for the reply. When I put the print command at the end of the file, all the duplicates are still there. My original code had this snippet at the end:

open(my $fh1, '>', $SCAC_output) ;
foreach (@output) {
    print $fh1 "$_ \n ";
}
close $fh1 ;

The $SCAC_output file (defined elsewhere in the code) has a bunch of duplicate file references from the array. The reason I ended up putting the print statement inside the while loop (along with the sleep command) was to try to understand better what part of the code causes duplicates in the array.

When i run this

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
#use WWW::Mechanize ;
#my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();

my $txt_url ;
my $pdf_url ;
my $html_url ;
my $output ;
my @output ;
#my $file_content = "D:/Perl/Perl output/garbage_content.csv" ;
my $file_content = "1189436input.txt" ;

#    my $get_file = "http://securities.stanford.edu/filings-case.html?
+id=101092";
    my $filename = "file_output_101092" ;
#        my $response = $mech->get($get_file,
#        ':content_file'=> $file_content,);
    open my $fh, '<', $file_content  or die $?;

      my $i =1 ;
         
      while (<$fh>) {
      chomp;

$txt_url=''; 
$pdf_url=''; 
$html_url=''; 

       if(index($_,".txt")>=0) {
         $txt_url = $_ ;
        }else {
      if(index($_,".pdf")>=0) {
          $pdf_url = $_ ;   
        }else {
      if(index($_,".html")>=0) {
          $html_url = $_ ;   
      } 
    }
  }
 
        if (($txt_url)|($pdf_url)|($html_url))
        {
            $output = join ",", $filename, $txt_url, $pdf_url, $html_u
+rl ;
            push @output, ($output) ;
   }
}

close $fh ;

            foreach (@output) {
                print "$_\n" ;
            }

I assume that the few "duplicates" there are from multiple references in the page or "#" references
