Greetings, Trying to be "cool" and apply map to the following lines of code (which work fine as shown)
@TIMES is an array of lines that look like Time: Thu Feb 3 15:10:39.290 GMT 2005 End: Default.2.def-edtp0.on Time: user 0.29 sec Delta: Default.2.def-edtp0.on Time: Thu Feb 3 15:10:43 GMT 2005 Start: Default.1.def-slpr-2m-t-10m-wind0.on Time: Thu Feb 3 15:10:43.580 GMT 2005 End: Default.1.def-slpr-2m-t-10m-wind0.on Time: user 0.58 sec Delta: Default.1.def-slpr-2m-t-10m-wind0.on use Tie::IxHash; tie %BY_PROJ_HASH, "Tie::IxHash"; my @DELTAS = grep (/Delta/, @TIMES); foreach (@DELTAS) { $_ = /(\d+\.\d+)\s+sec\s+Delta:\s+[Default\.]*\s*(.+)[\.on]*$/; my $proj = $2; my $time = $1; print "<br>$proj => $time\n" if ($DEBUG == 1); # Push the value into the hash making the value for the hash # an array (See Perl Cookbook Recipe 5.7) push( @{$BY_PROJ_HASH{$proj}},$time); } So far haven't had any luck using map to create the hash of arrays %BY_PROJ_HASH. Any suggestions? Thank you John Kent -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
