my @hitsarray = qw(this is the first hit this is the second hit this is the
third hit);
my $fieldnumber = "4";
my $searchposition = "2";
I want to know whether @hitsarray contains two sets of $fieldnumber
elements where the string at $searchposition is identical - in this
example, that would be "is". I guess the first step to do would be to
separate @hitsarray in sets of four elements (how? loop sliceing?), code
these sets as arrays and check whether $array[$searchposition] of one such
array is identical to that of another. Or is there a more efficient
approach?
