in reply to Re: Is it possible to use key/values of a Hash/Hash ref while it's being initialized?
in thread Is it possible to use key/values of a Hash/Hash ref while it's being initialized?
or
my %hash = map { my $foo = 'longstring'.$_.'more'; $_ => { key1 => $foo, key2 => alter($foo) } } @list;
or (the wacky)
my %hash = map { $_->[0] => { key1 => $_->[1], key2 => alter($_->[1]) } } map { [ $_ => 'longstring'.$_.'more' ] } @list;
or (the efficient)
my %hash; foreach (@list) { my $foo = 'longstring'.$_.'more'; $hash{$_} = { key1 => $foo, key2 => alter($foo), }; }
or (using auto-vivification)
my %hash; foreach (@list) { my $foo = 'longstring'.$_.'more'; $hash{$_}{key1} = $foo; $hash{$_}{key2} = alter($foo); }
or
my %hash; foreach my $key (@list) { foreach ('longstring'.$key.'more') { $hash{$key} = { key1 => $_, key2 => alter($_), }; } }
or
my %hash; foreach my $key (@list) { foreach ('longstring'.$key.'more') { $hash{$key}{key1} = $_; $hash{$key}{key2} = alter($_); } }
or (in two steps)
my %hash = map { $_ => { key1 => 'longstring'.$_.'more' } } @list; $hash{$_}{key2} = alter($hash{$_}{key1}) foreach keys %hash;
Updated: Added more alternatives.
Updated: Fixed bug. Changed $_ to $key in the concatenation in later snippets.
Updated: Added more alternatives.
