Hi,
I am giving my code here, but it doesnt give me the result i want. 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Spreadsheet::ParseExcel;

my $xls = Spreadsheet::ParseExcel->new();
my $xls_book = $xls->Parse( 'chrocordinates.xls' );
my $xls_worksheet = $xls_book->{Worksheet}[2];
my @contigs = map { $xls_worksheet->Cell( $_ , 0 )->Value} 1 .. 674;

my @coordinates = map {$xls_worksheet->Cell($_, 1)->Value} 1 .. 674;

#print "@contigs\n";
print "@coordinates\n";


my $new_contig;
my $new_coordinate;
do{
        foreach my $contig(@contigs){
                $new_coordinate = shift (@coordinates);
                $new_contig = shift (@contigs);
                print "$new_coordinate => (chromosome => \'\', contig 
+=> $new_contig)\n";
        }
}

I want to have an output like this (it should print as given ahead!)  "'first element of one array' => (chromosome '', contig => 'first element of second array');" This lookup table i want to use in another program
This program prints first 300 odd entries of the 674 expected!
What more can be done?!!
I hope i have given all the information. All the help is highly solicitated
regards
Sameet
