Subject: Re: Start reading from a specific line
if you want to use a built in function then use
$.
or its alternatives $NR, or $INPUT_LINE_NUMBER
By definition this says "the current input line number of the last file
handle that was read."
my $linect=$.
while ( <FILEHANDLE>) {
if ( $linect > 9 ) {
do whatever ...
}
}

Read the first nine lines before the while loop:
open INPUT, $file or die "Cannot open $file: $!";
# get rid of first nine lines
<INPUT> for 1 .. 9;
while ( <INPUT> ) {
do something with $_;
}
