Hi i have a perl code below:
foreach (@tmp_cycledef)
{
chomp;
my ($cycle_code, $close_day, $first_date) = split(/\|/, $_,3);
$cycle_code =~ s/^\s*(\S*(?:\s+\S+)*)\s*$/$1/;
$close_day =~ s/^\s*(\S*(?:\s+\S+)*)\s*$/$1/;
$first_date =~ s/^\s*(\S*(?:\s+\S+)*)\s*$/$1/;
#print "$cycle_code, $close_day, $first_date\n";
$cycledef{$cycle_code} = [ $close_day, split(/-/,$first_date) ];
}
the value of tmp_cycledef comes from output of an sql query:
select cycle_code,cycle_close_day,to_char(cycle_first_date,'YYYY-MM-DD')
from cycle_definition d
order by cycle_code;
can anybody tell me what exactly is happening inside the for loop?
thanks in advance.
