Re: How can I get the four highest valued letters in an array?

in reply to How can I get the four highest valued letters in an array?

To keep it simple:

 @letters = ("d","b","c","e","a","f");
@getallen = (4,6,5,2,9,1);
$teller = 0;
foreach $letter(@letters){
    $hash{$letter}=$getallen[$teller];
    $teller++;    }
@keyz = keys(%hash);
@sorted= reverse sort(@keyz);
@highest = @sorted[0..3];
foreach(@highest){
    print "$_:";
    print $hash{$_};
    print "\n";}
