Hi My problem is to read two tab delimited files compare the content of the files and display the similar contents and the different ones seperately in two files.. i am new to perl and i have written a few lines of code..please kindly direct me.. 
#!/usr/bin/perl
open FH1, "F1.txt";
open FH2, "F2.txt";
my @f1= <FH1>;
my @f2= <FH2>;
for my $x(0..4)
{
 for each($f1[$x1] eq $f2[$x2])
  {
   print $f1[$x];
   }
}
close(FH1);
close(FH2);
exit;
