G'day Nansh,
I'd consider using a hash. Use the makes for the main keys; you can always generate an array of them with keys if needed.
You didn't explain what the lines starting with "*." were supposed to be. I've assumed some sort of comment and labelled them as such.
You didn't explain why some models start with a "+": I've put them in separate arrays.
#!/usr/bin/env perl use strict; use warnings; use Data::Dump; my %cars; my $models_re = qr{(?x: ^ ( \w+ ) \s+ ( [^*]+? ) \s+ [*][.] ( .*? ) \s +* $ )}; my $plus_re = qr{(?x: ^ [+] ( .* ) $ )}; { local $/ = 'CARS '; while (<DATA>) { chomp; next unless length; my ($make, $models, $comment) = /$models_re/; for (split /\s+/, $models) { if (/$plus_re/) { push @{$cars{$make}{models}{plus}}, $1; } else { push @{$cars{$make}{models}{plain}}, $_; } } $cars{$make}{comment} = $comment; } } dd \%cars; __DATA__ CARS TOYOTO Etios Innova Camry +Fortuner Corolla *.This is Class cars. CARS HYUNDAI Verna i10 i20 +Eon Xcent +Tucson *.It is best cars. CARS HONDA City Brio Amaze +Accord *.This is Luxury cars.
Output:
{ HONDA => { comment => "This is Luxury cars.", models => { plain => ["City", "Brio", "Amaze"], plus = +> ["Accord"] }, }, HYUNDAI => { comment => "It is best cars.", models => { plain => ["Verna", "i10", "i20", "Xcent"], plus => ["Eon", "Tucson"], }, }, TOYOTO => { comment => "This is Class cars.", models => { plain => ["Etios", "Innova", "Camry", "Cor +olla"], plus => ["Fortuner"], }, }, }
