in reply to Arrays to Hash

Need more information.

If you want 4 arrays to go into one hash value:

@a1 = (1, 2, 3); @a2 = ...; @a3 = ...; @a4 = ...; $some_hash{$some_key} = [ \@a1, \@a2, \@a3, \@a4 ]; print "First array, 2nd value: "; print $some_hash{$some_key}->[0]->[1]; # 2
I don't really know if that's what you're asking, but if I read your question literally, it is. Otherwise, follow up your post with something that gives us some specifics about what exactly you're trying to do.
