I am trying to count the no. of blanks that appear and then break out of the
loop when all arrays' last elements are blanks/spaces. I think sprintf will do it but
I can't figure it out:
printf DGSUM" +--------------------------------------------------------+\n";
for $sr(1 ..9)
{
$one = "";
if($place1[$sr] eq ""){
printf DGSUM " | %d | N/A |",$sr;
$one = "mt";
}else{
printf DGSUM " | %d | %9s | ",$sr, $cwdp[$sr];
}
if($place2[$sr] ne ""){
if($one eq "mt"){
printf DGSUM " %9s |", $place2[$sr];
}else{
printf DGSUM " %9s |", $place2[$sr]; #data in so print to
screen
}
}else{
printf DGSUM " N/A |";
}
if($place3[$sr] eq ""){
$one = "mt";
printf DGSUM " N/A |";
}else{
printf DGSUM " %9s |", $place3[$sr];
}
if($place4[$sr] ne "" ){
printf DGSUM " %9s |\n",$place4[$sr];
}else{
if($one ne "mt"){
printf DGSUM " %9s |\n", $place4[$sr];
}else{
printf DGSUM " N/A |\n";
#printf DGSUM "place4=%s\n",$place4[$sr++];
}
#printf DGSUM "place4=%s\n",$place4[$sr++];
#if (($place1[$sr++] eq "") && ($place2[$sr++] eq "") && ($place3[$sr++] eq
"") && ($place4[$sr++] eq "")){
#break;}
}
each $place1[$sr] , $place2[$sr] , $place3[$sr], $place4[$sr] is a dial-in gateway.
I go through each gateway, pluck out its call stats and print them out. If there's no
gateway, I print N/A (that is there are 3 gw's per site except for the last one that
has 5 gw's, therefore the other
3 gateway's for their row 4 +5 have N/A beside them here's the output:
+--------------------------------------------------------+
| Daily Dial Gateway Call Totals |
| for 14 11 2001 |
+--------------------------------------------------------+
+--------------------------------------------------------+
| DG # | Place1 | Place2 | Place3 | Place4 |
+--------------------------------------------------------+
| 1 | 83018 | 66848 | 87005 | 62313 |
| 2 | 76762 | 66734 | 87000 | 62260 |
| 3 | 59572 | 57035 | 74555 | 53402 |
| 4 | N/A | N/A | N/A | 0 |
| 5 | N/A | N/A | N/A | 0 |
| 6 | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A |
+--------------------------------------------------------+
|Total | 219352 | 190617 | 248560 | 177975 |
+--------------------------------------------------------+
+--------------------------------------------------------+
| Grand Total | 836504 |
+--------------------------------------------------------+
I am trying to prevent the last row of N/A from appearing as there is no gateway 6
therefore the rows should stop at
row 5 and row 6 should not appear. I have been at this for a while and can't work out
how to do this with sprintf
any ideas ? thanks in advance
Harry
