You didn't mention where the data is located, so I can only speculate. I
listed the perldoc command's below to get more info on each of the
functions...
If the data is in a file you need to read the file, see "perldoc -f open"
for info on that. If the file is in a comma seperated file (or any other
delimeter) also look at "perldoc -f split" to cut the data into chunks.
If the data is retrieved from command line apps you can use backticks to
execute the command and grab the data...
my $cmdoutput = `mycommand`;
For printing the reports you probably want to use either printf ("perldoc -f
printf") or Perl's report creation mechanism ("perldoc perlform").

Subject: Help, I am new to Perl
Good morning everyone,
I am trying to create a report that will allow me to get a total number of
modem sessions, total connect time to the modems, average connect time per
session, average number of sessions per user, and the average connect time
per user. I know where all my data is located. However, I do not even know
where to get started. Any suggestions in how I can accomplish the daunting
task?
