Hello, I'm getting the following error message, ~/Desktop/Pipelines/hypothetical50.pl:7: readline() on closed filehandle $in. I can get the data to stdout, which is fine for my pipeline, but I would also like to have the actual file. Thank you PerlMonk for you infinite wisdom! Here's the code: 

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
open(my $in,"/Users/Desktop/Pipelines/fungi.1.aa.hypothetical.faa");
open(my $out,">Users/Desktop/Pipelines/fungi.1.aa.hypothetical50.faa")
+; 

local $/ = undef;
my @chunks = split(/>/, <$in>);
my @hypothetical50 = @chunks[0..49];
for my $hypothetical50(@hypothetical50){
    if($hypothetical50 =~ s/^gi/>gi/g){
        print $out "$hypothetical50\n";
    }
} 
close($in);
close($out);
