in reply to read files into 2D arrays and print element?

When I try to print element [0]1 from each matrix in each file, ... Does anyone have any idea why this is wrong?

@list is declared outside your for loop, so you are accumulating the data for all the files into the array; thus whatever value you put into $list[0][1] first, will never change.

If you move the declaration of @list inside the for loop, you'll probably get what you want.
