I would reccomend
$wordhash{lc $word}++;
as opposed to
$wordhash{$word}++;
if you're not worried about case-sensitivity, so you don't end up with:
To: 50 Also, if you're going to split on \s+ as everyone seems to be suggesting, don't forget you're going to have to $word =~ s/\W//g to get rid of those unsightly punctuation marks.
