how can you get the values from this big file once it gets created?
How did you intend reading your Dumpered file?
Use eval (Note: 'pp' is equivalent to 'Dumper' in the following example):
@a = ( a => { 1..10 }, b => { 'a'..'z' } );;
pp \@a;;
[
"a",
{ 1 => 2, 3 => 4, 5 => 6, 7 => 8, 9 => 10 },
"b",
{
a => "b",
c => "d",
e => "f",
g => "h",
i => "j",
k => "l",
"m" => "n",
o => "p",
"q" => "r",
"s" => "t",
u => "v",
w => "x",
"y" => "z",
},
]
open RAM, '>', \$file;;
print RAM pp \@a;;
open RAM, '<', \$file;;
@b = @{ eval do{ local $/; <RAM> } };;
pp \@b;;
[
"a",
{ 1 => 2, 3 => 4, 5 => 6, 7 => 8, 9 => 10 },
"b",
{
a => "b",
c => "d",
e => "f",
g => "h",
i => "j",
k => "l",
"m" => "n",
o => "p",
"q" => "r",
"s" => "t",
u => "v",
w => "x",
"y" => "z",
},
]
With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
