G'day fair,

Welcome to the Monastery.

Your first foray here has drawn the ire of a number of monks. I can see you've garnered a number of downvotes. Anything along the lines of "I want help", "Show me code", and such like, will get similar responses to what you've received here.

We're more than happy to help anyone who's shown some effort; however, this is not a code writing service.

"I have no skill in PERL."

None of us left the womb with any skill in Perl. Like other skills, it requires learning and practice. By the way, the language is called Perl; the program to run Perl programs is perl (possibly with an extension such as .exe depending on the OS); "PERL" is not a thing.

I suggest you start with "perlintro: Perl introduction for beginners". Bookmark the "online documentation". Take a look at its Tutorials section; in particular, the FAQ links.

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.


Do you know where your variables are?
