Fellow Monks!
I need your help!
In a nutshell I want to sort 12 months of single value data into 12 corresponding arrays. Sure I could do 12 if-then statements, but I would rather do it in a more sleak fashion such as what I would call a variable array naming scheme. The 12 arrays would already be predefined @stat1....@stat12. However, when it comes time to sort the data into its appropriate monthly array I would think that I would need to do something like this @statN, where N is the month number of the array that the value is supposed to go into, i.e. month 2 data would go into the array @stat2. Here is a little bit of non-functional code that I have attempted (by looking around for ideas) : 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

my $month;
my $value;

$month=2;
$value=300;

my (@stat1,@stat2,@stat3,@stat4,@stat5,@stat6,@stat7,@stat8,@stat9,@st
+at10,@stat11,@stat12);

my $arrayname = 'stat'.$month;
push @$arrayname, $value;

my $nr=@stat2;
print "NR $nr\n";
print "$stat2[0]\n";

This is an attempted test of prelim. concepts or so I thought. Could you please advise me as to where or how I am going wrong.
Any help that you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
Thank You In Advance!!
