I have tab delimited text file,which i split with tabs store it in array and display.One of the column data has a tab in between,so instead of taking the column data as a whole it splits that also,here is my data
data name aliasname, alsoknown class type

output

data name aliasname, alsoknown class type
what i want is data name aliasname, alsoknown class type

here is the code that i have tried

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; my $var; open(FH,"sample.txt")or die("can't open file:$!"); while($var=<FH>) { my @vareach=split("\t",$var); for my $each(@vareach) { print "$each\n"; } }

any suggestions on how to split these kinds of data?
