There's no need to for two nested loops. That will get really slow when %hash gets big.

use strict; use warnings; use utf8::all; my %hash = ( the => 5, good => 3, The => 2, Bad => 2, uGly => 1, uglY => 1, École => 1, ); for my $key (keys %hash) { next unless $key =~ /^\p{Uppercase_letter}/; my $lckey = lc $key; $hash{$lckey} += delete $hash{$key} if exists $hash{$lckey}; } for my $key (sort {$hash{$b} <=> $hash{$a}} keys %hash) { print "$key\t$hash{$key}\n"; }

Update: replaced /^[A-Z]/ match with a Unicode-aware regexp.

package Cow { use Moo; has name => (is => 'lazy', default => sub { 'Mooington' }) } say Cow->new->name
}) } say Cow-

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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.
