While I still don't know why the output is printing twice, this is the script I was ultimately trying to come up with and it works. That's all I really needed. This thread was simply a result of the odd, mostly unrelated output I was seeing.
#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use Lingua::JA::Numbers; my $len = $ARGV[0]; my (@numList, @rom, @kana, @kanji, %randList); open(OUTFILE, '>', 'converted.csv'); binmode OUTFILE, ":utf8"; while ((scalar(keys %randList)) != $ARGV[1]){ $randList{int (rand (1 . 0 x (int (rand $len))))} = 1; } @numList = keys %randList; for my $num (@numList){ my $jaRom = Lingua::JA::Numbers->new($num, {style=>'romaji'}); my $jaKana = Lingua::JA::Numbers->new($num, {style=>'hiragana'}); my $jaKanji = Lingua::JA::Numbers->new($num, {style=>'kanji'}); push @rom, $jaRom; push @kana, $jaKana; push @kanji, $jaKanji; } my (@hyphens, @noHyphens); for my $strg (@rom){ @hyphens = Lingua::JA::Numbers::to_string($strg); foreach my $val (@hyphens){ $val =~ s/-//g; } push @noHyphens, join(' ', @hyphens); } @rom = @noHyphens; for (my $i = 0; $i < (scalar @numList); ++$i){ print OUTFILE $numList[$i] . "," . $rom[$i] . "," . $kana[$i] ."," + . $kanji[$i] . "\n"; } close OUTFILE;
If we can figure out the cause of the output I'll be happy but it isn't really a pressing matter.
