I have an array of arrays where each item represents a line segment in the format (x1,y1, x2,y2). I am trying to combine these segments to form a single line but although it would seem simple enough I just can't work out how to do it. Any hints or pointers would be appreciated.

Sample data: 

my @AoA = (
    [11,29, 10,25],
    [15,35, 11,29],
    [15,15, 11,21],
    [10,25, 11,21],
    [15,35, 21,39],
    [25,40, 21,39],
    [21,11, 25,10],
    [15,15, 21,11],
    [35,35, 29,39],
    [29,39, 25,40],
    [35,15, 29,11],
    [25,10, 29,11],
    [40,25, 39,29],
    [35,35, 39,29],
    [39,21, 40,25],
    [35,15, 39,21],
);

For the above data the result should be: 
(11,29, 10,25, 11,21, 15,15, 21,11, 25,10, 29,11, 35,15, 39,21, 40,25,
+ 39,29, 35,35, 29,39, 25,40, 21,39, 15,35, 11,29)
