Dear Monks, I have a file like this: 
chrX    2680092    2744539    XG    1
chrX    2680090    2744529    XG    2
chrX    2680080    2744519    XG    3
chrX    2680070    2744509    XG    4
chrX    2680070    2744509    DT    1
chrX    2680090    2744519    DT    2

I want to obtain as a result a file like this: 
chrX    2680070    2744539    XG    4
chrX    2680070    2744519    DT    2

So basically I need to group by column 1 and 4, and obtain min value for column 2, max value for column 3 and max value for column 5. I've tried with this code: 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use List::Util qw(max);
use List::Util qw(min);

my $input0 = $ARGV[0];
open (DATA,$input0) || die "cannot open input0";

my %gene_hash;
while(<DATA>)
{
    chomp;
    my ($chr, $start, $end, $gene, $ex) = split(/\t/, $_);
    my $gene_key = $chr.":".$gene;
    
    push( @{ $gene_hash{$gene_key} }, $start ); 
    
    push( @{ $gene_hash{$gene_key} }, $end ); 
   
    push( @{ $gene_hash{$gene_key} }, $ex ); 

}



foreach my $key (keys %gene_hash)
{
    my ($c, $g) = split(/\:/, $key ); 
    print "$c\t$g\t";


   my $Low=min( @ {$gene_hash{$key} } );   
  
   my $High=max( @ {$gene_hash{$key} } );
  
   my $High_ex=max( @ {$gene_hash{$key} } );

   

    
    {
    
        print "$Low\t$High\t$High_ex";
    }
    
    print "\n";
}

__DATA__

but I don't know how to create different arrays for the hash so basically I push in the same array all the values... Obviously the result is a mess: 
chrX    XG    1    2744539    2744539
chrX    DT    1    2744519    2744519

Can you help me?

Many thanks!
