Hello Perl Programmers

Hello,

I have a question regarding openning a file

How can I start reading a file from n line?

For example

I open a File like this way

open(INPUT, $file)
while (<INPUT>)
{
 do something with $_;
}

But It starts to read from line #1, what I want is that start reading
exactly from line 10.

Read the first nine lines before the while loop:

open INPUT, $file or die "Cannot open $file: $!";

# get rid of first nine lines
<INPUT> for 1 .. 9;

while ( <INPUT> ) {
   do something with $_;
   }
