Hello,

Hello,

  If I only want the data on the first line of a file, can I use "last" to
exit the loop or should I consider another tool?

Don't use a loop at all:

my $data = <FILE>;  # Grap one line from file

can special-order certain sorts of tools at low cost and
in short order.                            -- Larry Wall
