in reply to optimise perl code

Madam, you can make use of File::Basename as rev_1318 suggested.

use File::Basename;
$dirname = dirname($tempValue);
$basename = basename($tempValue);
$result = "$dirname\/$temp1\.$temp2\.$basename";

    There's no need to escape slashes or periods within a quoted string: 
    ...
$result = "$dirname/$temp1.$temp2.$basename";

    (you escape a period when you want to match a literal period character in a regex; you escape a slash if you want to match a literal slash in a regex that happens to use the common "/" delimiters, as in /dir\/path/)
