This will create the matrix that you want. This is tested. Hope this helps;

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

open(MATRIX, "matrixfile.dat") || die "Error: Can't open matrixfile fi
+le for reading: $!\n";


$i=0;
while ($spool = <MATRIX>) {
    chomp($spool);
    @arr = split(/ /,$spool);
    for ($x=0;$x<= $#arr;$x++) { $matrix[$i][$x] = $arr[$x];}
    $i++;
} # end while

$x=$x-1;
for ($j=0;$j<$i;$j++) {
    for ($r=0;$r<4;$r++)
    {
        print "[ ";
        $cntr=0;$c=$j;
        for($cntr=0;$cntr<4;$cntr++) 
        {
            if($c gt  $x) {
                $c=0;
            }
            print " $matrix[$r][$c]  " ;
            
            $c++;
        }
        print " ] \n";
    }
    print "\n";
}

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.
