Capturing No-values Region in Regex match

neversaint has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Dear Masters,
How can I get my code below

use Data::Dumper;

my %bighash;
my $motif;
my $score;
my %hoa;
my $tag;

while ( <DATA> )
{
  chomp;
  my @aoa;
  if ( /^TAG/ )
  {
    $tag = (split(/: /,$_))[1];
  }
  elsif(/^MOTIF/)
  {
     ($motif,$score)=(split (/[\s,]/,$_))[1,3]; 
      push @{$hoa{$motif}}, $score;
  }
  elsif(/^\d,-\d+,[ATCG]*$/)
  {
      @aoa = split(/,/,$_); 
      push @{$hoa{$motif}}, [ @aoa ];
      
  }
  #print Dumper \%hoa ;
  $bighash{$tag} = { %hoa }; 
}               # -----  end while  -----

print Dumper \%bighash;

to capture "TAG: Set2" area that has no value. So that it gives something like this:

$VAR1 = {
          'Set1' => {
                      'CTTTTTAG' => [
                                      '10.6222222222222',

Try this: `my %bighash; my $motif; my $score; my $hoa; # formerly %hoa my $tag; while ( <DATA> ) { chomp; my @aoa; if ( /^TAG/ ) { $tag = (split(/: /,$_))[1]; die "No tag!" unless $tag; $bighash{ $tag } = $hoa = +{}; } elsif(/^MOTIF/) { ($motif,$score)=(split (/[\s,]/,$_))[1,3]; push @{$hoa->{$motif}}, $score; } elsif(/^\d,-\d+,[ATCG]*$/) { @aoa = split(/,/,$_); push @{$hoa->{$motif}}, [ @aoa ]; } #print Dumper $hoa ; } # ----- end while -----` [download] Note that I turned `%hoa` into `$hoa`; I think it's easier to work with hashrefs in this case. the lowliest monk	[reply] [d/l]
