A few comments:
-don't push when you could print.
-there is no need to save all the output in an array.
-using a hash allowed me to get rid of variables like $Nr_1 and put code in same lingo as the file itself.
-this kind of "anonimization" is easily cracked - not so anon.
-you will need a better scheme if this data is sensitive.
