Hi all,

I just tested the code from ikegami in my script, and the last file was still not processed. I guess the key is, when I generate the sub-files separately, and then use this code, all the sub-files are processed. However, when include this code in the entire script, only the first 3 out of 4 files are processed. Is there a reason for this behaviour?

I could include the entire script if that would help

Thanks, Austin-

my @files = <substituent_R*.txt>;
my $fn_out = "tmp.txt";
my $error = 0;

for my $fn_in (@files) 
{
        open(my $fh_out, '>', $fn_out) or die("Can't create output fil
+e \"$fn_out\": $!\n");

        open(my $fh_in, '<', $fn_in) or do 
        {
                warn("Can't open input file \"$fn_in\": $!\n");
                $error = 1;
                next;
        };

        my $sum = 0;
        my $cnt = 0;

        while (<$fh_in>) 
        {
                chomp;
                $sum += ( split /\|/ )[2];
                ++$cnt;
        }

        my $avg = $sum / $cnt;

        seek($fh_in, 0, SEEK_SET)
        or do 
        {
                warn("Can't seek in input file \"$fn_in\": $!\n");
                $error = 1;
                next;
        };

        while (<$fh_in>) 
        {
                chomp;
                my ($hd, $md, $tl) = split(/\|/, $_);
                my $tlf = sprintf("%.4f", $tl/$avg);
                print $fh_out "$hd|$md|$tlf\n";
        }

        close($fh_in);
        close($fh_out) or do 
        {
                warn("Can't save to output file \"$fn_out\": $!\n");
                $error = 1;
                next;
        };

        rename($fn_out, $fn_in) or do
        {
                warn("Can't rename \"$fn_out\" to \"$fn_in\": $!\n");
                $error = 1;
                next;
        };
}

exit($error);
