hi, I am new to perl programming.I am trying with the following script and need help for it.
I consolidated 10 excel files(in .txt format) which has same headers in it and so i made it 1 common header at the top.While doing it,in final output file i see a blank row at the beginning of every file consolidated.I wanted to get rid of it and to be displayed all in a single file. Sample Script: while(<FILE>) { if (($k ==0) and ($Line_Counter ==1)) { my @F=split(/[\t]+/, $_); print CONSOL_FILE "$F[0] \t $F[1] \t $F[2] \n"; } if (($k >=1) and ($Line_Counter>1)) { # doesnt print headers $Line=$_; my @F=split(/[\t]+/, $Line); print CONSOL_FILE "$F[0] \t $F[1] \t $F[2] \n"; } $Line_Counter = $Line_Counter + 1; } close FILE ; note:tab is the delimiter used here. Any help is Appreciated. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
