Hi, I only know Perl from an administration perspective, and trying to understand the below Perl Script primarily the main logic. Though I understand the syntax, but have challenges in understanding the flow. Could someone please explain me an overview of the this script ( Just a brief one would suffice) Here is the code :

Its easy to do, start a new file, and copy/paste the beginning of every "paragraph", that means every branch (if/else/unless) or loop (for/foreach/while/until)

Preserve the indentation level

This is the logic

Its like writing a good scientific essay/report/paper, simply reading the first and last paragraph and the first and last sentence of every intervening paragraph, will revel the main ideas of the paper

Are you going to try this?
