I would like to use the number on the left as a key in a hash and use
the number on the right as the value pair to the key. Then print the
values for each hour that have the same key. Maybe this is a good
example for an array of hashes, but I not real sure how to begin. Any
help is greatly appreciated.
Below is the input data:
Hr 12
0001 2
0002 3
0003 1
Hr 13
0001 2
0002 3
0003 1
Hr 14
0001 2
0002 3
0003 1
Desired output below:
12 13 14
0001 2 2 2
0002 3 3 3
0003 1 1 1
$ echo "Hr 12
0001 2
0002 3
0003 1
Hr 13
0001 2
0002 3
0003 1
Hr 14
0001 2
0002 3
0003 1" | perl -e'
my ( @hours, %data );
while ( <> ) {
push @hours, $1 if /^hr\s*(\d+)/i;
$data{ $1 }{ $hours[ -1 ] } = $2 if /^(\d+)\s+(\d+)/;
}
print join( "\t", "", @hours ), "\n";
for my $row ( sort { $a <=> $b } keys %data ) {
print $row;
for my $col ( sort { $a <=> $b } keys %{ $data{ $row } } ) {
print "\t$data{$row}{$col}";
}
print "\n";
}
'
12 13 14
0001 2 2 2
0002 3 3 3
0003 1 1 1
