Hash to match a for loop!	Can't Post

Hi, boyz! I have a problem and hope that some1 can help me. Well, i'm trying to use a hash (wich i charged previously) to match table items. It's something like this:

Code

open(IN,"<list.txt") or die "Dommage!\n"; 
while (my $desc = <IN>){ 
	$etat{$desc} =1; 
} 
close IN;

then i charge a table with some info and read it using a for loop like this:

Code

for (my $i = 0; $i <=$#tab; $i++){ 
		if (defined ($etat{$tab[$i]})){ 
		$abc++; 
		$total_abc++; 
		}

I just can't make it match the hash keys with the table items. it's like, if i have in my hash the key "nice" i would like to, when i make the for loop and if it encounters the word "nice", it increments my two variables ($abc and $total_abc). Thanks for helping :)

Hi Isabelle,

try to chomp your lines before loading them in either the hash or the table. The problem is likely to come from new line characters.

You can simplify the counting by using grep in scalar context. (You still need Laurent's newline fix)

Code

chomp @tab; 
$total_abc += grep {exists $estat{$_}} @tab;

Good Luck,
Bill
