hello, monks

I got a weird problem when using Text::CSV to process a list of 119880 records/lines saved in in.csv, the code I am using is as follows:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

use Text::CSV;

my $csv = Text::CSV->new({ 
    binary            => 1, 
    allow_whitespace  => 1,
    allow_loose_quotes => 1,
}) or die Text::CSV->error_diag ();

open my $csvfile, '<', 'in.csv' or die "cannot open in.csv for reading
+: $!";

open my $fout, '>', 'out.txt' or die "cannot open out.txt for writting
+: $!";   
    
my $line_no = 0;

while (my $record = $csv->getline($csvfile)) {
    $line_no++;
    my $value  = "$record->[9], $record->[7], $record->[8] $record->[1
+0]";
    printf {$fout} "[%06d] %s\n", $line_no, $value;
}
__END__

By running this code, I got only 119606 records in out.txt.. so how can I detect the 274 missing records. or are there any robust ways to grab records from a CSV file and process its fields within a while loop.

BTW. I used wc -l filename to count the number of lines contained in filename.

Thanks
