the eseast way is having all the arrays in a hash.
map{$hash{$_}->[$index]="xxxx" if /^xyz/}(keys(%hash));

Subject: get all the arrays with names starting with xyz
Hi all :
I have few arrays with names starting with "xyz_". After the initial
definitions I want to change values of a particular index of all arrays
whose names start with "xyz_". It would be cumbersome for me to do
something like :
$xyz_blahblah[$index] = "ldfhdlf";
$xyz_blooblooh[$index] = "dfhdlkfhdkf";
$xyz_foofoo[$index] = 27;
...
..
& so on...
particularly when the number of arrays are many !!
Is there any method to do this easily ?? Or could I get the names of all
arrays with a particular starting string & then group them in a array
and proceed ??
Thanks in advance !!
Regards,
Ravi
