Need to create a hash table from csv file. Starting from sample code's, I'm getting error. I don't know do i need to use hash_ref to recognize(add/modify) hash table. Hash table should contain contents of Column1 and Column5 from CSV file. Hash $keys need to be Column5 and corresponding $values to be Column1. Later, I'll refer/replace Column1 to edit other task. Please help me how to solve these task! Thanks

sub mainCSV { open (my $inputfile1, '<', "$inputfile") or die "Unable to open $input +file1: $!"; my %hash; while (<$inputfile1>) { $inputfile1 =~ s/\s*\z//; my @arrayfile1 = split /,/, $inputfile1; my $keyfile1 = shift @arrayfile1; $hash{$keyfile1} = \@arrayfile1; } print %hash; close $inputfile1; }
