Is there any special way to do row/col (two dimensional) based associative arrays?
Something like: $array{1.1}="line one column one"; $array{1.2}="line one column two"; or @names(Bob,John,Jeff); @info=(Age,Zip,Phone); $data{Bob.Age}=23; foreach $entry (@names) { print "$data{$entry.Age}\n"; } I guess in perl code maybe this would work??? But how would I assign one dimension of the two dimensional array to a new one dimensional only array and still keep the assosiation of @info with one assignment? Example: %bobsdata=$data{???}; # All bob's data print $bobsdata{Age}; # Bob's age? I know the below would work but looking for one assigment or the correct way to do two dimensional assosiated arrays: foreach $entry (@info) { $bobsdata{$entry}=$data{Bob.$entry}; } Thanks, Glen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
