Hi,

To add to the post above, a simple use of Data::Dumper highlights the issue

use strict;
use warnings;
use autodie;
    #these 3 above are a must -have
use Data::Dumper;


my %ifac= (
14.152 => "JCI",
9.334 => "JHEP",
5.745 => "JIMM",
6.270 => "JID",
1.480 => "JRN",
6.105 => "KI"
);

print Dumper(\%ifac);

displays:

$VAR1 = {
          '6.105' => 'KI',
          '1.48' => 'JRN',
          '9.334' => 'JHEP',
          '5.745' => 'JIMM',
          '6.27' => 'JID',
          '14.152' => 'JCI'
        };
