Subject: Sorting a hash
Message-Id: <8kfiis8fgdtrtv3qn8m9o8ajbdjtfclcn2@4ax.com>
Hello all,
I am currently working on a linkspage with a redirect script to see
which links are used and which are not.
Another script is processing the logfiles.
The pagecounts are stuffed in a hash, and the hash is sorted by the
script found in the perlfaq (4 I think...)
Everything went very well until after a few minutes a page hit the 10
visits. Now the sorting looks like this:
6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 10, 1, 1, 1
How do I sort my hash to move the largest number up front?
The script is printed below.
Many thanks in advance!
Gert.

#c:\perl\bin\perl.exe
use strict;
use vars qw($line $logfile);
my $logdir = "d:\\www\\linklog";
# I still hate to use the double backslash, but that's the sacrifices
# I make for coding on a windows box....
my %sites;
my @logfiles = glob("$logdir\\*.log");
# This pulls all the logfiles out of the dir and stuffs them into an
array.
foreach $logfile (@logfiles) {
open(EDIT, $logfile) || die "Cannot open $logfile";
$logfile =~ s/d:\\www\\linklog\\//;
$logfile =~ s/.log//;
$logfile =~ s/_/\//g;
my @lines = <EDIT>;
close(EDIT);
foreach $line (@lines) {
my ($Time, $ReHo, $Date) = split(/\|/, $line);
$sites{$logfile}++;
}
}
print "Content-type:text/html\n\n";
print "<table width=100%><tr><td width=50%></td><td

# (Necessary for the browser to understand this stuff)
# Let's sort the keys now. Highest number first. So I thought....
@keys = sort {
$sites{$b} cmp $sites{$a}
} keys %sites;
# Now iterate through the keys and print the whole bunch

print "<tr><td>$key:</td><td> <img src='/axs/red.gif' height=5
width=$sites{$key}0> ($sites{$key} visitors)\n</td></tr>";
}

'<=>' not 'cmp'. Read "perldoc -q sort" again. Try:
@array = ( 1, 4, 5, 3, 2, 6, 10, 1, 1, 1);
@rslt1 = sort { $b <=> $a } @array;
@rslt2 = sort { $b cmp $a } @array;
print " @rslt1\n @rslt2\n";

You can use "d:/www/linklog" instead. Better yet, make it a
command-line or configuration variable to make your script more
portable (probably not a big concern, but still).
: # Let's sort the keys now. Highest number first. So I thought....
: @keys = sort {
: $sites{$b} cmp $sites{$a}
: } keys %sites;
You need to use the <=> operator instead of cmp. Almost there.
perldoc -f sort
or the HTML ActiveState documentation will help you further.

Subject: SQL newbie question
Message-Id: <8gbels$7m1$1@newsg1.svr.pol.co.uk>
Hi,
I'm trying to write an SQL query which will compare the elements of an
array to every column in a table and return any matches. Would this work?
SELECT * FROM exampletable
WHERE * = $foo[1] AND $foo[2] etc..?
I imagine it wouldn't. If I want to return the rows where all the
elements of @foo match at least one column what would be the correct way to
structure the query? Thanks in advance.

Sorry for blundering-in here, but to me that's a very confusing thing
to say. There's nothing technically wrong with that URL: it doesn't
need to have a slash appended, and even if a slash +was+ appended, it
wouldn't technically be a _trailing slash_ (in spite of appearances).
http://foo.dom.tld/urlpath
^
leading slash for urlpath
This might be a valid URL. On the other hand, it might be one of
those blunders that get redirected to:
http://foo.dom.tld/urlpath/
^ ^
| trailing slash
leading slash
The trailing slash is never optional. Adding it makes a different
and independent URL, in technical terms. It's only a common
convention that /dirname , intended to point to a directory (strictly
speaking, "to the default resource in a directory"), gets redirected
to /dirname/ - but it doesn't _have_ to be that way, and some servers
are configured to behave differently.
When the urlpath is empty, the leading slash is optional.
So, in your example, the urlpath was empty, and the then-optional
_leading_ slash had been omitted, which, in URL terms, is entirely
permissible.
Perhaps you had some other good reason for wanting that slash?
All the best

"...good beginning point for hyperlinks...."
^^^^^^^^^
"There are, of course, some obscure exceptions
which may need to be added to each...make note
of their exceptions, if you think you need those
exceptions."
"There are times I do make minor adjustments to
compensate for those oddball rare exceptions."
Leaving out as many characters as 'reasonably'
possible, lends to better security. Being both
realistic and reasonable, is of key importance
in good programming practices.

I may be missing something, but why not just set
$domain to everything atfer the @, and then
dig $domain mx
and grep for a valid MX record?
That would save having to secondguess the syntax of
(possibly wierd-ass) domain names?

Administrivia:
The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:
subscribe perl-users
or:
unsubscribe perl-users
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
| NOTE: The mail to news gateway, and thus the ability to submit articles
| through this service to the newsgroup, has been removed. I do not have
| time to individually vet each article to make sure that someone isn't
| abusing the service, and I no longer have any desire to waste my time
| dealing with the campus admins when some fool complains to them about an
| article that has come through the gateway instead of complaining
| to the source.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
