in reply to reading cif files

Perhaps you could describe your problem better, I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve. I think these terms relate to bioinformatics. Essentially work out how you would solve the problem in pseudocode, then implement that in Perl (or whatever language best suits your problem/existing skill set).

Here are some links I think you should read and understand:

If you have a specific Perl problem please let us know. The better you explain your problem, the more likely it is that people can/will be able to help you.

    Can you check, the updated version is good enough? Or I need to provide more details?

      Well, you removed your existing post, rather than provided an update, and changed the post title, which makes the existing replies seem incorrect. Please don't do this, just mark which parts of the post are new.

      My previous advice stands, if you want to write perl scripts you'll need to learn some perl. This (which I found via a search engine) suggests that either BioPerl will be able to do this, or provides a link to a STAR parser as a robust solution. I'll leave the rest to you as research. If you have an actual Perl problem please let us know.
