You can use symbolic references:
perldoc perlref
(see Symbolic references section)
$i=0;
While(bla bla){
$i++;
$a_var_name="array$i";
$h_var_name="hash$i";
#
@$a_var_name=(); #this for instance clears @array1 if your are in the first
loop.
%$h_var_name=(); #this for instance clears %hash1 if your are in the first
loop.
}
But I personally don't like this solution (see advices from perldoc).
May be you can think about the re-design of your data structure and use for instance:
- array of hashes
and
- array of arrays
