That will not work. You build a hash like this:
[0] Perl> %hash = (
1 => {
1 => "nothing",
name => "Shrek",
event => "I saw shrek!",
},
6 => {
1 => "nothing",
name => "Donkey",
event => "I saw the donkey!",
2 => "nothing",
name => "Fiona",
event => "I saw Fiona!"
},
);;
But end up with this:
pp \%hash;;
{
1 => { 1 => "nothing", event => "I saw shrek!", name => "Shrek" },
6 => { 1 => "nothing", 2 => "nothing", event => "I saw Fiona!", name
+ => "Fiona" },
}
NOTE: that in the hash key by '6' there is only one 'name', and only one 'event'.
You cannot have duplicate keys in a hash. You need to rethink your data structure.
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
