where am i wrong

$#{$table} should be either $#${table} or just $#$table

$table is an arrayref so these 

  my $location = $table[i]->[0]; # missing $ on i
  my $room = $table[i]->[1];

[download]
should be 
  my $location = $table->[$i][0];
  my $room     = $table->[$i][1];

[download]

and push is for building an array not a hash, so this

push $hdata{$location}=$room;

should be

$hdata{$location} = $room;

or alternatively

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use Data::Dump 'pp';
my $table = [
 ['Wellbeing Office', 'Pending'],
 ['Library','Pending'], ['Y219','InProgress'],
 ['B201','InProgress'], ['B108','InProgress'],
 ['LAB1','InProgress'], ['C303','InProgress'],
];

my $last_index = $#${table};
my $count = scalar @$table;
print "
records    = $count 
last index = $last_index\n";

#my %hdata = ();
#for my $i (0..$last_index){
#  my $location = $table->[$i][0];
#  my $room     = $table->[$i][1];
#  $hdata{$location} = $room;    
#}
#pp \%hdata;

my %hdata = ();
for my $row (@$table){
  my $location = $row->[0];
  my $status   = $row->[1];
  $hdata{$location} = $status;    
}
pp \%hdata;
