Hi,
After reading the thread on (RE: verify file exits) I was curious.
What is the fastest way to open a file in perl? A colleague of mine told me
when I was learning perl that it is better to read the whole file in at once
and store it in an array. I am currently using this:
while (<FILE>) {
push @FILE_FILE, [ split /whatever/, $_ ];
}
is there a better way? I just saw that you can simply do this:
@FILE_FILE = <FILE>;
Normally I would check to make sure that the line I read in actually had
data, and clearly the = solution doesn't accommodate this unless you sliced
the array afterwards. When I was learning C, C++ I always read a character
at a time. So what is the best way in perl?
Thanks!
-Tim
