I was looking to insert keys into a hash so that I can import some data from existing datafiles into a db, I was planning on using keys which would match the columnames in the database and the values would of course be what is entered into the columns, I am using odbc for my data connection and have existing data which consists of a date+timestamp followed by several times, for tests conducted on websites.
so my keys should be {stamp}{login}{search} etc..
and my values would be like 01/01/2008 12:34 PM, 20.5, 19.6 etc. problem is it doesn't seem to like my attempt to load the keys , and then afterwards its going to kill my data when I go to assign the hash to the contents of the file, I guess I could get around this using join, and storing data from the file into an array, but I am still kinda stuck on how to pull this off.
%hash = split /\,/,<FILE>;
@labels=qw(Date,Login,Searchload,Searchsave,Searchdetails,Searchdelete
+);
unshift(%hash)=(@labels);

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).
