Hi all, I have to convert a standard CSV file (nothing special) into a specific custom-defined format...now, I've decided to do it in perl because perl is just lovely with txt files. But my one question is, since I'm reading a line from an array (which has the contents of the CSV in it) and performing some calculations on various fields, then reconstructing the text file based on those calculations.
My question is : using arrays to store and manipulate this data, is it the best way of doing it? what advantages would using hashes have? for me it'd be easier to work with arrays and remove/replace/modify existing data into each cell then write it to a new file...arrays make sense...but is there another way?
