## calculate total my $total = 0; foreach keys (%hash) { $total += $hash{$_}; } ## create a new hash to an anonymous array foreach keys (%hash) { $percentage = ($hash{$_}/$total) * 100; $browsertype{$_} = [$hash{$_}, $percentage]; } ## access foreach keys (%browsertype) { print "Value: $_: $browsertype{$_}[0]\n"; print "Percentage: $_: $browsertype{$_}[1]\n"; } Untested though :) Tor Tor -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
