in reply to Doubt in code - Beginner in perl

Hi Perl_Programmer1992,

Glad you got your question answered. Just wanted to reiterate, welcome to the wonderful world of Perl.

You have truly chosen one of the most interesting and useful languages available!

I encourage you to check out perlrun to learn about some of Perl's many command line options.

These enable you to write very cool "one-liners" such as the following reproduction of your program:

perl -wlnE '$w{$_}++; END { say "$_ has appeared $w{$_} times" for sort keys %w }'

Happy coding!

πάντων χρημάτων μέτρον έστιν άνθρωπος.
