Right. So instead, try this:
my %data = (
'slashdot.org' => 180,
'cpan.org' => 150,
'perl.com' => 150,
'apache.org' => 120,
);
my @keys = keys %data;
# invert the %data hash, creating arrayrefs each with list
# of elements with the same ranking
my %ranks;
push @{$ranks{$data{$_}}}, $_ for @keys;
# count/sort the rankings
my @ranks = reverse sort {$a<=>$b} keys %ranks;
for my $rank ( 0 .. $#ranks ) { # print them
my @tied = @{$ranks{ $ranks[$rank] }};
if (@tied > 1) { # more than one with this ranking
local $"=', ';
my $last = pop @tied;
print "@tied and $last all have rank ". 1+$ranks[$rank] ."\n";
} else {
print "@tied has rank ". 1+$ranks[$rank] ."\n";
}
}
Update: Rankings should be 1-based.
