Re^5: concatenating multiple lines without using . operator

So - you want to SLURP and CONCATNATE. Try replacing your entire WHILE loop with:

 do {local $/;  ($seq{$chr}=<IN>)=~s/[\s\r\n\t]//g};

I think this might cause a problem since there will be occasional lines that look like `>chr02` which are the sequence IDs and meant to be hash keys. Slurping like this would miss the transition between chromosomes or distinct DNA sequences.	[reply] [d/l]

I acknowledge your point - I'm still not clear about what the OP's requirements are - I was merely trying to show how she/he could slurp and concatenate. I hope life isn't a big joke, because I don't get it. -SNL	[reply]

Yes, OP was less than explicit.	[reply]
