I am connecting perl with database using DBI, I have a query.
My query is if the table.ID equal to 5, set the first one to 10, then the second one 11 and the third one 12 and so on by increasing the value of max one each time and set it to table.ID when the query is true.. till the end.
I need something like for loop, I did this code, but it does not work.
Any idea how to rewrite or fix it.
Thanks
----------------------
use strict; use warnings; use DBI; my $max=10; #connect to the databases my $dbh=DBI->connect ('dbi:mysql:database', ' ', ' ') || die "Could not connect to database: $DBI::errstr"; my $add_max="update table set table.ID=".$max." where table.ID=5"; my $run=$dbh->prepare($add_max); $run->execute() or die "SQL Error: $DBI::errstr\n"; while(my @row =$run->fetchrow()){ $max++; } Input ID Name 4 AAA 5 BBB 8 CCC 5 GGG 13 TTT 14 RRR 5 YYY output should be ID Name 4 AAA 10 BBB 8 CCC 11 GGG 13 TTT 14 RRR 12 YYY
