My requirement as follows: I am reading the output of the wmic command as follows: 

    my @pnames = `wmic product where "Name like '%Provider%'" get Iden
+tifyingNumber, Name,Version`;
    
    print "@pnames";

**Till here the output is as follows:** 
    IdentifyingNumber                        Name                     
+                    Version
      
    {E094B8EA-87B7-48DE-A0A8-A18AC8BFCDF4} .NET Data Provider for Tera
+data                14.00.0.0
    
    {1551F9D6-1B14-4AE1-BABA-70A4319C236A}  ODBC Driver Provider      
+                    14.00.0.0

**Proceesing the array**

    foreach $name ( @pnames )
    {
      chomp($name);
    
      #@names = split('need to pass something',$name); 
      # I want to split every input entry   into 3 parts- IdentifyingN
+umber, Name,Version similarly the way they read.
    
      $name =~ s/^\s+//; #remove leading spaces
      $name =~ s/\s+$//; #remove trailing spaces
    
      # here logic goes this way, If the version number has matched, s
+erach for name and if name has matched display its identifying number
+ 
      
      print "Identifying number(say $id) of the packge with name(say $
+pkg)\n";
    
    }
