in thread Count and print in perl

my problem is how to split the file and how to print in defined format. I have tried this <$str_len = length($line1); if($str_len > 72){ my @split_line = unpack("(A32)*" , $line1); > But it is not solving my problem.because after 11 count one character is incrementing so not printing aligned format.

    ... because after 11 count one character is incrementing so not printing aligned format ...

    See sprintf.

    perl -Mstrict -Mwarnings -E ' my @x = qw/ 123 1234567890 12345678901 /; say sprintf("%-11s length %s", $_, length $_) for @x; '
    Output:
    123 length 3 1234567890 length 10 12345678901 length 11

    Hope this helps!



    The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
