Hi

I have one file with 500 lines in it. i want to split that file into 5 file each should contain 100 lines.

i used delimiter after every hunder lines and i am able to split file into 5 files.

Now what i want is...

Instead of delimiter i want to count number lines in a file.then split that file qually into 5 files..

Please help me in doing this one

spliting file code using delimiter.

#!/usr/bin/perl

my $fil_count = 0;
my $delim = 'test';
open IN, '< test1.txt' or die "Can't open in.txt: $!\n";
open OUT, '> Out0.txt' or die "Can't write to out0.txt: $!\n";
while (<IN>)
{
 if (/^(.*?)$delim(.*)$/)

  {
    print OUT $1 if $1;
    close OUT;
        $fil_count++;
    open OUT, '> Out' . $fil_count . '.txt' or die "Can't write to out
+${fil_count}.txt: $!\n";
    print OUT $2 if $2;
  }
  else {
    print OUT $_;
  }
