in reply to Specific hash to array conversion query

Here's a map solution (note that you can't depend on the order that keys provides, so if order matters you'll have to put a sort or two in there; I also assumed that there was just 0 and 1 keys in there): 
my @values = map {
    ( [ $_, 0, $properties{$_}->{0}->{value} ], [ $_, 1, $properties{$
+_}->{1}->{value} ] )
  } keys %properties;

Also note that your %properties = { ... } needs to be %properties = ( ... )

    Nice answer, thankyou!

    What if there were other keys besides 0 and 1.. that appears to be the hardest part of all..

      thanks! For other keys, you can nest a map in there .. trick is to use a temp variable for the outer $_. Remember that you can put any code inside the map--it's only the value of the last statement that matters/is returend. I also tossed a sort of the file results in there so that it's exactly what you put in your OP: 
      my @values = sort { $b->[0] cmp $a->[0] || $a->[1] <=> $b->[1] }
  map {
    my $k = $_;
    map { [ $k, $_, $properties{$k}->{$_}->{value} ] } keys %{$propert
+ies{$k}};
  } keys %properties;

      Update: Now that i read the rest of the thread and see that Zaxo and Transient provided the exact same nested map.. I like the post-sort on mine though :)
