grashoper has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
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);
