Re^2: Generation of a Hash of Hashes

"I'm trying to figure out for what task this data structure would be convenient"

Thanks for your reply.

For this case, I have a file with information formated as I've posted above.

This is:
1 to 5 digits, 1 space, 1 to 65 characters

Each line represents classes and subclasses (and sub-sub-classes...) and their names.
Each digit represents one level.

For example:

11234 Some Text
      ^^^^^^^^^---- Name of this class (level)
    ^------- 5th class
   ^-------- 4th class
  ^--------- 3th class
 ^---------- 2nd class
^----------- Top (main class)
[download]

Classes' levels varies between 1 and 9.

I'm trying to use this Hash to create an XML document.

I'd suggest trying to write code to produce the XML document and only then figure out what data structure you need to do it. (There are so many variations in what XML can look like that your task doesn't tell me what a good data structure would be for your problem.)	[reply]
