This:my @nums = split(/\\./, $sf[0]); is attempting to split the string on the text \. Ie. You've escaped the backslash, so it is taken as a single literal and the dot will match any character. Change that to: my @nums = split(/\./, $sf[0]); That is escape the dot '.' with a (single) backslash so that the dot is taken as a literal. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
