This goes back to a previous post, which I've somewhat resolved myself, but still have one outstanding issue: I am looking to grab and store the value of each overall json line value first. Example: from the below code, I want to actually read and store in a variable through a while loop and store 1, 2, 3, etc. 
{
"1": {"subject1": "value", "subject2": [{"subject3": "value", "subject
+4": "value"}], "subject5": "value", "subject6": value, "subject7": "v
+alue"}, 
"2": {"subject1": "value", "subject2": [{"subject3": "value", "subject
+4": "value"}], "subject5": "value", "subject6": value, "subject7": "v
+alue"}, 
"3": {"subject1": "value", "subject2": [{"subject3": "value", "subject
+4": "value"}], "subject5": "value", "subject6": value, "subject7": "v
+alue"}
}

(etc...) I currently already can store subject1's value as well as the array of subject2 and grab its subject3 value. 
my $jsonfeed = (above json format!)
my $json = new JSON;
my $data = $json->decode($jsonfeed);

my $value = "$data->{1}->{subject1}";

    foreach my $array(@{$data->{1}->{subject2}}){
      my %hash = ();
      $hash{subject3} = $array->{subject3};
}

So this is all nice, but I need to store the first value of each {} sequence which is listed here as 1{}, 2{}, 3, etc as well in a variable, and then loop the whole thing in one giant while or foreach loop. I can't seem to grab every value, however, of $data->{$_}. Anyone have a good idea?
