Dear Monks,

I now have a code that runs but doesn't print what I want 

#!/usr/bin/perl; 
use strict;
use warnings;
my $fin = "SELECTDAT2";
my $fout = "myfile";
open my $ih, '<', $fin or die "cannot open $fin for reading, $! ";
open my $oh, '>', $fout or die "cannot open $fout for writing, $! ";
my @records;
my @list;
while (<$ih>) {
my @tokens = split;
my $SEC1 = $tokens[3];
my $LAT = $tokens[4];
my $LONG = $tokens[5];
my $DEPTH = $tokens[6];
my $NO = $tokens[10];
my $GAP = $tokens[11];
for $_ (@list) {
my ($SEC1, $LAT, $LONG, $DEPTH, $NO, $GAP) = parse_record($_);
push @records, [ $SEC1, $LAT, $LONG, $DEPTH, $NO, $GAP ];
}
#sort by LONG (index 0=NO, 1=SEC1, 2=LONG, 3=LAT, 4=DEPTH, 5=GAP)
my @sorted_recs = sort { $records[$a][2] <=> $records[$b][2] } @record
+s;
my $nextline = <$ih>;
my $y = $tokens[0], my $m = $tokens[1], my $d = $tokens[2], my $h = $t
+okens[3];
sub events {
my (@list);
foreach $nextline (@list) {
my @tokens = split;
my $SOURCE = $tokens[0];
my $PSEC = $tokens[3];
my $PQ = $tokens[4];
my $SSEC = $tokens[7];
my $SQ = $tokens[8];
last if $nextline eq "";
push (@list, $_);
}
return @list;
}
last if eof();
for my $rec (@sorted_recs) {
my ($NO, $SEC1, $LONG, $LAT, $DEPTH, $GAP) = @$rec;
print $oh "$NO\n", events(@list), "\n", "$SEC1, $LONG, $LAT, $DEPTH, $
+GAP\n";
}
}
close ($oh);
close ($ih);

I can't figure why my 'myfile' is not printing out as I want it to with my code.
