Hi, I'm parsing a log file that contains this format: 1112677214 31388202 181264589 1112677214 8843 59460 8843 59460 1112676919 10728 59045 10728 59045 1112676900 10617 59006 10728 59045 1112676600 8693 58389 9531 59661
These logs are in unix timestamp format: I'm trying to convert the first column into scalar localtime. Here's my code: our @temp; open FILE, "./logfile.txt" or die $!; while (<FILE>){ foreach my $time(split/\s+/, $_){ push @temp, $time; } print shift @temp, "\n"; } ... And the output: 1112677214 31388202 181264589 1112677214 8843 59460 8843 59460 1112676919 10728 59045 10728 59045 1112676900 10617 59006 10728 59045 1112676600 8693 58389 9531 59661 This is wiered, it didn't print the very first element of @temp. But if I were to change shift into pop: our @temp; open FILE, "./logfile.txt" or die $!; while (<FILE>){ foreach my $time(split/\s+/, $_){ push @temp, $time; } print pop @temp, "\n"; } The output will be: 181264589 59460 59045 59045 59661 It seems to be working fine with pop. Any idea? Thank you very much. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - You care about security.
