Hello Perlmonks! So I have a directory(let's call it WEIGHT_HEIGHT) with files as follows:

ID_002_weight.txt ID_002_height.txt ID_003_weight.txt ID_003_height.txt ID_004_weight.txt ID_004_height.txt
What I would like is to make a new directory(let's call it WEIGHT) and put all the weight.txt files in it. So I get all weight files in the new folder as follows:
ID_002_weight.txt ID_003_weight.txt ID_004_weight.txt
Is there a way to do this? I am fairly new to perl, so if you could guide me to some topics or tutorials which would help me achieve this will be really great. Thank in advance!
