Hello All I SEEK THE PERL MONKS WISDOM!!
Okay hers my problem.
I have a simple database setup like so
Item1|Item2|Item3
Now I do a simple search on it like so:
@results=grep(/$searchString/i,@da);
if($#results >= 0){
foreach $i(@results){
($item1,$item2,$item3) = split(/\|/,$i);
It then prints out the results if there are any.
Okay now say $item one is a price - 35.00.. Now I want the search results to be printed out from lowest to highest.
The problem here is if im using a database and it goes there each line one by one,, and the first one is 100 dollars and the 5th is 1.00 dollar how can I get it to write out the first one after its past it.
I know this sounds very confusing its been buging me for a while now. Please can someone help!!
Thanks in advance!
