Spooky has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Perl Monks,
I would normally use SAS to sort (in this case a userid: alphnumeric, e.g., ewh12345) and delete duplicate records (or in my case userids) but I'd like to stick to Perl if at all possible and avoid calling SAS code from my Perl source. What's the best way to do this - assuming it can be done?
