In fact that file contains 162 distinct color names and 261 distinct color values. Also my hash doesn't include all the grays. But yes, more than in my list. use strict; use warnings; my %names; my %values; while (<DATA>) { if ( /([a-z].+)/i ) { my $n = lc($1); $n =~ s/[ 0-9]//g; $names{$n} = defined $names{$n} ? ++$names{$n} : 1; } if ( /(\d{3} \d{3} \d{3})/ ) { $values{$1} = defined $values{$1} ? ++$values{$1} : 1; } } use Data::Dumper; print Dumper(\%names); print "Names: ", scalar keys %names, "\nValues:", scalar keys
