prithviraj:

The only difference I see is the totals at the end. If that's the case, you should probably accumulate the totals in the first loop.

However, I rather suspect that you really don't want that. Your data shows multiple work periods for at least one employee, yet your output doesn't indicate it. I'm thinking that what you *really* want to do is to track both the number of periods *and* the total time for each employee. You might try it something like:

while (my $series = shift @series) {
   my $nums = shift @series;
   $empwork{$series}{TTL} += $nums;
   $empwork{$series}{CNT}++;
}

Then later you can show the number of periods and the total time and compute the average.

for my $empnum (sort keys %empwork) {
   ...
   my $periods = $empwork{$empnum}{CNT};
   ...
}
