how to maintain the order of actual list after counting its occurence using hash... in the following program... eg.. <DATA>
are
a
b
e
a
c
d
a
c
d
b
etc....
Using hash... i counted the occurence of each element. and what i want is:
a 3
b 2
e 1
c 2
d 2
but the following program shows me otherwise...
my (%count, $line, @array_1, @array_2);
while ($line = <DATA>) {
$count{$line}++ if ( $line =~ /\S/ );
}
@array_1 = keys(%count);
@array_2 = values(%count);
for(my $i=0; $i<$#array_1; $i++)
{
print "$array_1[$i]\t $array_2[$i]";
}
