Re: Arrays not being manipulated

A few comments, in no particular order:

You should always check the return value of open(), e.g.:

open(FILE,'myfile') || die "Couldn't open 'myfile': $!";

You don't need to declare all of those variables as globals at the top of your script.
Hard to say since I don't know the formatting of pi.txt, but your split() looks suspect. Maybe you want to split on ' ' or //?

Those loops at the end can be shortened considerably:

print "@organism\n";
print "@numberMutation\n";

Those loops at the end can be shortened considerably: Not quite. Assume that @a=(1,2,3). Doing it your way will produce "123\n". Doing it the OPs way will produce "1\n2\n3\n". As for me, I'd do it thusly: `print join("\n",@organism), "\n"` [download] or even `{ local $,="\n"; print "@organism\n" }` [download] thor `Feel the white light, the light within Be your own disciple, fan the sparks of will For all of us waiting, your kingdom will come`	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Fair enough, but still not to the OPs spec, which was my point. :) thor `Feel the white light, the light within Be your own disciple, fan the sparks of will For all of us waiting, your kingdom will come`	[reply]
