Hi,

I have 2 arrays. One holds all uniq key values of an associative list 
(all ssn), other holds the associated values (their names). I need to 
create a hash by putting these arrays together. Each entry in that 
hash would be (ssn => name).

I can iterate over one array and create the hash. Is there any inbuilt 
function (or a real cool piece of code) that does the same?
Well, I don't no about "real cool", but:

my @ssns = ('111-11-1111', '222-22-2222', '333-33-3333');
my @names = qw(One Two Three);
my %ids = map { $ssns[$_], $names[$_] } 0..$#ssns;

Hope that helps.

James
