I'm not sure I understand your whole question, but the easiest way to find the largest integers is to sort your array in reverse numeric order:
my @array (5, 6, 7, 89, 1, 0, 456, 298023, 56); my @sorted = sort {$b <=> $a } @array; Now @sorted should contain: (298023, 456, 89, 56, 7, 6, 5, 1, 0) What do you want to do with this?

Hiya, I'm in search for a solution. Let's say I have this array: @array (5, 6, 7, 89, 1, 0, 456, 298023, 56); Now, how can I get the biggest integers from this array and give them a string with their place. Let's say I have a foreach loop where I checked all the biggest integers (however, I don't know how) and I give them all a string like: $website_76 = 1; # position 1 $website_87 = 2; # position 2 -------------- Bob Erinkveld (Webmaster Insane Hosts) www.insane-hosts.net MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ Ontvang je Hotmail & Messenger berichten op je mobiele telefoon met Hotmail SMS http://www.msn.nl/jumppage/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
