The goal of this assignment is to put in practice the list and I/O
functionalities implemented by Perl.



Write a program that will read a list from a file (input), will sort
the list in lexical order and write back the sorted list to another
file (output).  You can use arrays and any of the Perl built-in
functions learned so far to solve this problem.



this it what i have

#!/bin/perl


open ( PWFILE, "/etc/passwd" ) ;
open ( NEWPWFILE , "> /tmp/newpasswd" ) ;

@lines = <HELLO> ; this is how you sort the line;

while ( $line = <PWFILE> ) {
   print NEWPWFILE "@line" ;
   print @lines
}

close ( PWFILE ) ;
close ( NEWPWFILE ) ;
