Hello again,

I need an algorithm that will somehow parse my data sample below. and keep track of the unique hex numbers as well as a consolidated list of int values associated with each hex number

#!/perl/bin/perl.exe -w use strict; while (<DATA>) { Dynamic SortRoutine here } __DATA__ 0x130005d 1.253.54.1 11 0x130009c 1.253.54.2 12 0x130005d 1.253.54.1 14 0x130005d 1.253.54.1 11 0x130005d 1.253.54.1 10 0x130009c 1.253.54.2 12 0x130009c 1.253.54.2 14
I've tried several things such as pushing only the unique elements onto an array, but I was unable to keep track of the unique int values for each unique hex number

The desired output would be an array for each unique hex number with elements of unique int values

0x130009c = 12, 14 0x130005d = 10, 11
