Subject: Question on sorting an array
Message-Id: <39858BE3.9E8DC9E7@gredos.cnb.uam.es>
Hello,
is there anyway to use the sort function in a way that you can know
where the old indexes (positions) go.
I mean, for example:
$arr[0] = 12;
$arr[1] = 2222;
$arr[2] = 0.5;
$arr[3] = 3241;
$arr[4] = 5;
$arr[5] = 122;
I don't want only to sort it, I want to know that the smallest (0.5)
corresponds to the position [2], , so I can go to another array and get
the information corresponding to the element [2]
I hope you could understand my question and help me
Thanks in advance,
Federico

Something like
my @arr = (12, 2222, 0.5, 3241, 5, 122);
my %oldpos;
@oldpos{@arr} = 0..$#arr;
my @sortarr = sort { $a <=> $b } @arr;
print "smallest is $sortarr[0], was at pos $oldpos{$sortarr[0]}\n";
prints
smallest is 0.5, was at pos 2
However, what should happen if there are several elements of equal value
in @arr (e.g., what if the value 0.5 occurs three times)?

Message-Id: <8m43kr$udr$1@nnrp1.deja.com>
Hi there,
I tried doing what you suggested, but namke kept stalling during the
compilation period. Have you used it sucessfully in the past?
Also, I found an ActivState precompiled copy of some of the stuff I was
looking for. On an NT workstation, I could successfully install them
with PPMNet.
However, when it cam to the server that they need to run on (which is
running Windows NT Server 4, and Perl 5.x), I got the following error
message:
"Could not locte a PPM binary of 'Net-Daemon.ppd' for this platform"
Net-Daemon was one of the modules i could download onto the workstation,
is there any particular reason that this should be a problem with NT
server?
Any help is much appreciated,
Lorenzo.

I need to convert a string, $word, and also a binary number, $bivect, to
an array of characters so I can push and pop at leisure, and then
convert the string back again. Any suggestions on how to do this?
Thanks

For example, using split() and join():
for my $s (qw/110001010 hello/) {
my @a = split //, $s;
pop @a;
push @a, 4..6;
my $r = join '' => @a;
print "$r\n";
}
perldoc -f split
perldoc -f join

Woo, more words. Why do you need to return it as HTML if its a text file?
Can you not return it as a text file? Because it was requested via a web
browser doesn't mean it has to be an HTML page, URL's point to
'resources'. This is easiest method, your script just uses
print "Content-Type: text/plain\n\n";
then reads the file to and writes it to STDOUT.
Or better, convert it once using an editor to be able to format it how you
want (since a perl script isn't going to know how to add emphasis to words,
or to add anchors etc. from a plain text file because it only has text.) and
just return that file with no on the fly conversion.

For what? I mean, not that I mind (though I prefer if you throw money:)
What does 'text file to html' mean? You want to convert it?
open(TXT, "<readme.txt") || die "Ick - $!";
print "<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>readme.txt</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>\n";
while(defined($_ = <TXT>)){
print;
}
close(TXT);
print "</BODY></HTML>";
I suspect that isn't what you mean, but since 4 words aren't much to go on
. I mean, you might at least want to add some formatting to it. Perhaps
setting $/ = "\n\n" and reading paragraphs so:
$/ = "\n\n";
while(defined($_ = <TXT>)){
print "<P>$_</P>\n";
}
But we're back to only having 4 words to work with ...

Perl variables *can* contain underscores. So, in my opinion, a better
solution would be:
s/ _(.*?)_ / $replacers{$1} /g;
which would interpolate variables like $this_one.
A more comprehensive solution is also given in the FAQs. In perlfaq4:
How can I expand variables in text strings?

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.
