I want to compare the elements of an array with the keys in a hash. If
matches are found, I want to store the values associated with the
matched keys in an array for future processing :
my @storage_array = ();
foreach $item(@original array) {
if (exists $original_hash{$item}) {
push(@storage_array, ?????? )
}
}
Your ?????? should just be $original_hash{$item}, I expect, although this
code could be written far more succinctly as a map():
my @storage_array = map {
exists $original_hash{$_} ? $original_hash{$_} : ()
} @original_array;
