Don't expect you to believe me but I'm not a student and this isn't homework. That being said, I have a dataset that I've converted to binary representation using unpack. I've removed a few words that were not part of the randomized stream. What I have left needs to be ran through a self syncrounous shift register. If someone could point me to a module or something that would get me started that would be great. Sorry for the hastle, bottom line is I just don't know enough math.	[reply]

Howdy! That was not at all obvious from the initial presentation. You still have not offered much information that tells us what you have tried or what the limits of your knowledge are. You give no evidence of having tried to help yourself. Why should we do all the heavy lifting? What research have you done so far? Help us help you. yours, Michael	[reply]

Thanks Michael for not slamming me. I've looked into Bit::Vector and Bit::ShiftReg however I don't think they will do what I need done. That being said I could be totally wrong. Truthfully I don't know where to look. I've searched the modules for anything with LRS or registers but haven't seen anything I think will work. I have other tools that will do this (C code), however I didn't write them and they can only handle up to 2 Gigs. The file I have is 9 Gigs. Although a bit slow I can get perl to handle that big of a file. I'm not looking for someone to do the work for me, I'm just looking to be pointed in the right direction.	[reply]
