Update Never mind, all wrong. Did the original post get updated?
So you want a sort? Ok.
@sorted_pairs = sort { my@a1 = split',',$a; my@b1 = split',',$b; $a1[0
+] <=> $b1[0] || $a1[1] <=> $b1[1] } @pairs;
The first match returns 0 for a match, so it falls through to the second comparison for things like 2,6 2,7
You need to split the values, otherwise 10,1 would sort before a pair like 2,6, and just using numeric sorting breaks at the comma. It would be even better to split the values ahead of time, but probably not necessary. (You could always use a Schwarzian Transform).

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).
