Text::ParseWords can help in splitting the string up into tokens, and it's really nice when getting rid of quotes that may or may not be there:
use Text::ParseWords;
<DATA>;
while (<DATA>) {
chomp;
my @words = shellwords($_);
print "ID: $words[0]\tCourse: $words[1]\n";
}
__END__
"ID" "Course"
9414 "Nutitional Epidemiology"
9414 "Nutritional assessment"
9414 "Undernutrition in the United States"
1371 "Health Politics and Policy"
1371 "Advanced Health Politics?"
1371 "Introduction to Health Policy & Management"
If you separate out the printing, it's probably best to return a reference to @records, then pass that to the printing subroutine. You can probably also pass a list of hash keys to print (use a hash slice or a subset):
my @keys = qw ( ID Dept Fax);
print ul( map { li("$_: $data{$_}") } @keys);
I think that's what you mean.
