What I am trying to achieve is a set of Pairs which is then (in the script that this code fits in) fed into another script which performs some functions on each pairs defined.

I tried:

my $Person1 = defined($1) ? $1 : ''; my $Person2 = defined($2) ? $2 : '';

And the end results were the same.

So then I tried re-writing the regex to this:

if ($Line =~ m/^Pairing Start\s+(\w+)\s+(\w+)/) {

And I go the same results:

Use of uninitialized value within %PairsOf in concatenation (.) or str +ing at ./test_removing_pair_unitialized_value_error.pl line 26, <DATA +> line 14. Use of uninitialized value within %PairsOf in concatenation (.) or str +ing at ./test_removing_pair_unitialized_value_error.pl line 27, <DATA +> line 14. Use of uninitialized value within %PairsOf in concatenation (.) or str +ing at ./test_removing_pair_unitialized_value_error.pl line 27, <DATA +> line 14. Use of uninitialized value within %PairsOf in concatenation (.) or str +ing at ./test_removing_pair_unitialized_value_error.pl line 27, <DATA +> line 14. Use of uninitialized value within %PairsOf in concatenation (.) or str +ing at ./test_removing_pair_unitialized_value_error.pl line 27, <DATA +> line 14.

I also checked the __DATA__ to ensure there were no white spaces at the end of each and every line and I wasn't able to find any..

Any other Idea's?
