Hi, I am trying to get the maximum number in a file looking like:
1 5001 2 5002 3 5003 4 5004 5 5005 6 5006 7 5007 8 5008 9 5009 10 5010 11 5011 12 5012 13 5013 14 5014 15 5015 16 5016 17 5017 18 5018 19 5019 I had the idea to push the individual line in a row into a array and se the List::Util module - but I cant get it to work. Here is what I reached - can you tell me where I go wrong? Thanks Jakob #! /usr/bin/perl -w use List::Util qw(max min); open IN, "<", "num2.txt"; my @in = <IN>; push @col1, $in[0]; print max @col1; close IN; -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
