Hi Monks!

I need to add values into a hash to create a JSON file. Is there a better way to do this. Here is the code I am trying:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dump 'pp';
use Data::Dumper;
use JSON;



  my %data;
  foreach my $number (@{ $names }) {

   $data{name}  = $claim->{"n_names"};
   $data{address} = $claim->{"n_add"};
   $data{phone}  = $claim->{"n_phone"};
   $data{email}  = $claim->{"n_email"} || '';

   push \%data, $data{name}, $data{address}, $data{phone}, $data{email
+};
      
  }

  my $json = encode_json \%data;
  print Dumper $json;

Thanks for helping!
