I am just starting with perl and would like some help with arrays please.
I am reading lines from a data file and splitting the line into fields:
open (INFILE, $infile);
do {
my $linedata = <INFILE>;
my @data= split ',',$linedata;
....
} until eof;
I then want to store the individual field values (in @data) in and array so that the array looks like the input data file ie, the first "row" of the array contains the first line of data from INFILE etc.
Each line of data from the infile contains 4 values, x,y,z and w and once the data are all in the array, I have to pass the array into another program which reads the x,y,z,w and displays the w value on a screen at the point determined by the x,y,z value. I can not pas the data to the other program on a row-by-row basis as the program expects the data to in a 2d matrtix format.
Any help greatly appreciated.
