what is wrong with my code

My guess is you need to refresh @store_array within the @first_directory loop

foreach my $first (@first_directory){ my @store_array = qw (1 2 3 4 5 6); # here while(my ($i,$j) = splice(@store_array,0,2)){ my $second_directory = "$first/$i/$j"; ..

try

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use File::Glob 'bsd_glob'; my $store_location = '/path/to/file/store.txt'; open my $fh_log, '>', $store_location or die "Fail to open file '$store_location' $!"; my $Dir1 = "/somewhere"; my $Dir2 = "/somewhereelse"; my @first_directory = ( $Dir1, $Dir2 ); foreach my $first (@first_directory){ my @store_array = qw (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8); while (my ($i,$j) = splice(@store_array,0,2)){ my $second_directory = "$first/$i/$j"; if (-e $second_directory and -d $second_directory){ my @files = bsd_glob("$first/$i/$j/*"); foreach my $file (@files){ my $lines = 0; my $match = 0; open(FILE, "<" , $file) or die "Can't open file '$file': $!"; + while (<FILE>){ if (/TbhODK|octuov|qas_uop/) { ++$match; } ++$lines; } print "$file : $lines lines read. $match matches found\n"; close FILE; print $fh_log "File $file has $match matches\n"; } } else { print $fh_log "Directory $first/$i/$j (fail to exist)\n"; } } } close $fh_log;
