Hi, I have a question regarding excel related. I want to change my numerical values of @output5b from zero into 1. However, when I use the substitute method (last line of code), all the values of 0 including the numbers that include 0 will change into 1. However, I only want those cells that contain only a "0" to be "1". How do I go about it? Thanks :) 
   for(my $i = 0; $i < $originalfilecount; $i++)
        {
            if($first)
            {
                $first = 0;
                
                #print OUT5 "\t$resultarray[3]";
                $outputb = "\t$resultarray[3]";
            }
}

        #print OUT5 "\n";
        
            push(@output5a, $outputa);
            push(@output5b, $outputb);
           
           for(@output5b){s/0/1/g}; #convert output from 0 to 1
