As moritz points out, your problem description is very confusing. Grabbing at straws, do you mean something like this?

knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ perl -MData::Dumper -Mstrict -wE '
> my @arr = map { [ $_ => 0 ] } 1 .. 15;
> $arr[ $_ - 1 ]->[ 1 ] = $_ for 5 .. 10;
> print Data::Dumper->Dumpxs( [ \ @arr ], [ qw{ *arr } ] );'
@arr = (
         [
           1,
           0
         ],
         [

         [

Note that array subscripts are zero-based by default in Perl (and it is a default that you *really* don't want to tinker with).

I hope this is something along the lines of what you are after. If not, have another go at describing your problem more clearly, perhaps with a cut-down data set and the result you are hoping for.
