Hello everybody, I have two lists and I want to merge them like this:

    element 1 of list A, element 1 of list B, A2, B2, A3, B3, etc.

I need this to create a sequence of key/value for an anonymous hash.

I'm using this code:

    # @fields contains the names of the hash keys
    # $val is a string containing a colon-separated sequence of vales to
    # be associated with the keys

    my $count = 0;
    $data{$key} = { map { $fields[$count++] => $_ } split (/:/, $val) };

which uses a counter variable.  I was wondering it there's a more
elegant (AKA perlish) way to mix two lists in this way.

Thanks!
