use List::MoreUtils qw{ any };

my $first = 'computer';
my $last  = 'printer';
my $in    =  0;
my @keys;
open FILE1, "types.txt" or die $!;
while (<FILE1>)
{
    if (defined(my $key = (split)[-5]))
    {
        if ($key eq $first .. $key eq $last)
        {
            $in = 1;
            push @keys, $key;
        }
        elsif ($in && $key eq $last)
        {
            push @keys, $key;
        }
        else

my $csv = Text::CSV->new ( { binary => 1 } );
open my $fh, "<:encoding(Latin-1)", "orders.csv" or die "Cannot open $

    my $do_skip_test = 1;
    while(my $line = <$fh>)

            my (@fillarr1) = split ';',$line;           
        if ((grep {$fillarr1[14] eq $_ 
+}@keys)) #this is bothering me, as hardcoded comparison like $fillarr
+1[14] =~ /computer/ is successful
        {   
            
            #$do_skip_test = 0;
            my (@fillarr) = split ';',$line;
