Re^3: max "value " of an hash

You can find only one key from hash...
Some time you can have situatuin like this:

max value = 5
but in hash present
${'asdf'}=5;
${'asdfg'}=5;

This algorithm can show only last key or value...

Hi Khariton, Yes you are right, for my previous node I just show how to get the maximum value in a hash. Now, I had updated the code, that will get the maximum value, as well as the corresponding keys. `# get values with numerical sort @values = sort {$a<=>$b} values %hash; # process each element foreach (keys %hash) { # get the key name of the maximum value print "\nkey : $_ : value $hash{$_}" if ($values[$#values] == $has +h{$_}); }` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Hi Khariton,

# get values with numerical sort 
@values = sort {$a<=>$b} values %hash;

# process each element
foreach (keys %hash)
{
    # get the key name of the maximum value
    print "\nkey : $_ : value $hash{$_}" if ($values[$#values] == $has
+h{$_});
}
