Because in the first case you are still inside the loop when you print the array @out, and in the second case you reassign to the array @arr1 each time through the loop.

Update: try this (untested): 

my @wanted;
for my $line ( @lines ) {
    my @fields = split /,/, $line;
    if ( $fields[2] eq '1' || $fields[2] eq '0' ) {
        push @wanted, $fields[4];
    }
}
@wanted = uniq @wanted;
print "$_\n" for @wanted;

Hope this helps!


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
