Hello ameezys,
From your initial description I believed also as other fellow Monks that you are looking for ARRAYS OF ARRAYS. Based on your updated description it looks that you are looking for HASHES OF ARRAYS.
Sample of code below:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
my %HoA = ( N1 => [undef],
N2 => [undef],
N3 => [undef],
N4 => [undef] );
print Dumper \%HoA;
# add to an existing row
push @{ $HoA{"N1"} }, "A", "B";
print Dumper \%HoA;
__END__
$ perl test.pl
$VAR1 = {
'N3' => [
undef
],
'N2' => [
undef
],
'N1' => [
undef
],
'N4' => [
undef
]
};
$VAR1 = {
'N3' => [
undef
],
'N2' => [
undef
],
'N1' => [
undef,
'A',
'B'
],
'N4' => [
undef
]
};
Is it possible to be looking for HASHES OF HASHES?
Hope this helps, let us know if this is not what you are looking for.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
