I am trying to read a quite large file (ca 13000 lines) directly into an
array (for speed)
like this
open (ACCS, "C:\\Perl\\BioPerl-0.7\\Seqdata\\Accession.txt") or die "can't
open Accessions file";
@ets=<ACCS>;
$ets_count=@ets;
the actual data is a 2 column tab delimited file like:
<<...OLE_Obj...>>
etc....
I have been looking at the directions on using the split command in the
"Perl -in a nutshell book", but really can't figure out how to split the
@ets array into 2 separate arrays (say--@etsOrig + @etsRefSeq). I feel this
is probably simple but err...not to me.
Alternatively if you can tell me how to reference just the second part of
the line in a loop like e.g.
for($i=0; $i < $ets_count; $i++)
{
seq->some_function_of(the second column of @ets[$i}
}
maybe that would be quicker???
