I have an array and I am trying to apply a hash to it. This is what I have that works: 

if ( -s "/tmp/$strHostname/polling.txt") {
my @ndmpselect;
open ($fh8, "/tmp/$strHostname/polling.txt");
chomp (@dmpselect = (<$fh8>));
my %ndmphash;
for (@dmpselect)
{
    unless (exists $dmphash{$_})
                {
                         my $file = "/tmp/loc/" . $_ . '.txt';
                        open(my $fh, '>', $file)
                        or die "Cannot open file '$file' for writing: 
+$!";
                            $dmphash{$_} = $fh;
                                }

                            }
}

This works fine. At this point it places a blank file ending in .txt in the /tmp/loc directory. However, I am trying to rewrite this so instead of using the polling.txt file the script can just use an array. However, when I try like this, without reading from the polling.txt file, there is not even a blank file created in the /tmp/loc directory. I am probably missing something simple. Can anyone help? 

my @list = (@lines);
foreach (@lines) {
    my @fields = split /,/;
    if ( $fields[2] eq '1' || $fields[2] eq '0' ) {
     #@arr1 = do {"@fields[4]\n"};
push @list, $fields[4];
@list =uniq @list;
print "$_\n" for @list;

for (@list)
{
  
my %dmphash;


    unless (exists $dmphash{$_})
                {
                         my $file = "/tmp/loc/" . $_ . '.txt';
                        open(my $fh, '>', $file)
                        or die "Cannot open file '$file' for writing: 
+$!";
                            $dmphash{$_} = $fh;
                                }
