Re: [sfo_sc] Read a file from a specific line and extract something to another file

I think maybe you want to use "if" instead of "while" here:
while ($file[$i] =~ m/^\t/ || $file[$i] =~ m/^Caused/
|| length($file[$i]) == 0 || $file[$i] =~ m/^\s/) {
push(@temp, $file[$i] . "\n");
$i++;
}
"while" is generally used for looping through lists or files while a condition is true. "if" is used to make a decision based on the evaluation of an expression.
what you have is something like this:
$num = 1;
while ($num == 1) {
print "AHHHH!!";
}
since $num will always equal 1, the condition will always be true, and the loop will never exit. Now go get some sleep!
