I'd like to count keys in a hash of hashes based on their values. I have an example hash snipit as follows:
%hash = (
'a' => {
'x' => 40,
'z' => 102
},
'b' => {
'z' => 100,
'x' => 10,
'y' => 20
},
'c' => {
'x' => 50
},
'd' => {
'z' => 101,
'y' => 30
}
);
There are a couple of different ways I'd like to count the keys on this hash.
1. How can I count the number of keys where 'x' has a defined value, but does not have a value for 'y'?
2. How can I count the number of keys which have a defined value for 'z'?
Thanks for all shared wisdom.
Update:
Thanks for showing me how to do this.
One additional thing I forgot to ask in my original question.
How would I also count the number of keys with a value of 101 for 'z'?
