Thanks for your comments. It is a good idea. ultimately I was thinking of
using the array. Since I am a new bee to this, while writing small programs
I am trying to learn different aspects of the same function. Which I believe
will be good for me in the long run. and in return I ll be able to
contribute when I am ready. 
This was just a snippet of code for people to look at and evaluate logic and
comment, not on the whole program and programming semantics. I do not like
to waste list members valuable time on reading the whole code where it is
not necessary.

Thanks

Why do you want a scalar variable for each value? Why not using an 
array instead?

And you seem not to be using strictures and warnings.

Others have helped you with the pattern passed to split().
