Hi Experts,

Below is my code, unix command executes on zip file and displays the count of field 3, based on the value in field 3, i have 10 records in zip file, the field 3 contains word CHECK and KCEHC, the command which is used counts the number of CHECK and KCEHC

my $result1 = `gunzip -c $file|cut -f3 -d'|'|sort|uniq -c`;

The input zip file contains, the 11 records

ABC|123|CHECK|1|
DEF|456|CHECK|1|
GHI|789|CHECK|1|
JKL|101|CHECK|1|
ABC|123|CHECK|1|
DEF|456|CHECK|1|
GHI|789|CHECK|1|
JKL|101|KCEHC|1|
ABC|123|KCEHC|1|
DEF|456|KCEHC|1|
GHI|789|KCEHC|1|

gives me this error message / faulty output:

2
   4 CHECK
   6 KCEHC

I need to store the values 4 in $c and 6 in $c2, could you please suggest how can we do that

I also tired the below one....

my $r = `gunzip -c $file|cut -f3 -d'|'|sort|uniq -c`;
my $c1  = substr( $r, 16,-2);
my $c2  = substr( $, 9,-9);

This gives me the output as...

<code> $c1 = 4 $c1 = 6 <code>

I have a question to experts, was this correct method
