Hello forum. I am here with a logical problem rather. I have a log file which will be huge in and can run in MBs. log file structure is like
2007-08-09,0,0,0,0,0,0 2007-08-11,0,0,0,0,0,1 2007-08-11,0,0,0,0,0,1 2007-08-12,0,0,0,2,3,2 What I am supposed to do is show the data between particular date range. what I have thought so far is to get a two dates for range. then getting all the dates in between the range into an array and parsing each line to see if the date is there and print the record. But my mind says there might be some optimum solution to this. At first i tried to use record separator as the starting date but soon realized if the record to that particular date doesnt exist my program is dead. Right now I am unable to think of anything else. If you can point me to any module or something logical I can do here . It would be helpful. -- nexis -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
