Remove the "\n" when you read the records in

while(<VOTE>){
  chomp ; # add
 ($user[$count],$vote[$count])=split (/\|/);
  $count++
}

I tried the chomp and it didn't seem to work i also tried chop, is there anything else I need to add beside the chomp; to make it remove the "\n"? </code>	[reply]

It won't work if the vote.txt file already has extra newlines, try starting with a blank vote.txt file. If it still doesn't work try this instead of chomp `s/[\r\n]//g;` [download] poj	[reply] [d/l]
