perl hash with array - arrays

I did same hash like this:
my %tags_hash;
Then I iterate some map and add value into #tags_hash:
if (#tagslist) {
for (my $i = 0; $i <= $#tagslist; $i++) {
my %tag = %{$tagslist[$i]};
$tags_hash{$tag{'refid'}} = $tag{'name'};
}}
But I would like to have has with array, so when key exists then add value to array.
Something like this:
e.g. of iterations
1,
key = 1
value = "good"
{1:['good']}
2,
key = 1
value = "bad"
{1:['good', 'bad']}
3,
key = 2
value = "bad"
{1:['good', 'bad'], 2:['bad']}
And then I want to get array from the key:
print $tags_hash{'1'};
Returns: ['good', 'bad']

An extended example:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my $hash = {}; # hash ref
#populate hash
push #{ $hash->{1} }, 'good';
push #{ $hash->{1} }, 'bad';
push #{ $hash->{2} }, 'bad';
my #keys = keys %{ $hash }; # get hash keys
foreach my $key (#keys) { # crawl through hash
print "$key: ";
my #list = #{$hash->{$key}}; # get list associate within this key
foreach my $item (#list) { # iterate through items
print "$item ";
}
print "\n";
}
output:
1: good bad
2: bad

So the value of the hash element to be an array ref. Once you have that, all you need to do is push the value onto the array.
$hash{$key} //= [];
push #{ $hash{$key} }, $val;
Or the following:
push #{ $hash{$key} //= [] }, $val;
Or, thanks to autovivification, just the following:
push #{ $hash{$key} }, $val;
For example,
for (
[ 1, 'good' ],
[ 1, 'bad' ],
[ 2, 'bad' ],
) {
my ($key, $val) = #$_;
push #{ $hash{$key} }, $val;
}

Convert an array of strings into a array of arrays of strings

My goal is to convert this
my #array=("red", "blue", "green", ["purple", "orange"]);
into this
my #array = ( ["red"], ["blue"], ["green"], ["purple", "orange"]);
Current test code:
my #array = ("red", "blue", "green", ["purple", "orange"] );
foreach $item ( #array ) {
#if this was Python, it would be as simple as:
# if is not instance(item, array):
# # item wasn't a list
# item = [item]
if(ref($item) ne 'ARRAY'){
#It's an array reference...
#you can read it with $item->[1]
#or dereference it uisng #newarray = #{$item}
#print "We've got an array!!\n";
print $item, "\n";
# keep a copy of our string
$temp = $item;
# re-use the variable but convert to an empty list
#item = ();
# add the temp-copy as first list item
#item[0] = $temp;
# print each list item (should be just one item)
print "$_\n" for $item;
}else{
#not an array in any way...
print "ALREADY an array!!\n";
}
}
# EXPECTED my #array=(["red"], ["blue"], ["green"], ["purple", "orange"]);
print #array , "\n";
foreach $item (#array){
if(ref($item) ne 'ARRAY'){
#
#say for $item;
print "didn't convert properly to array\n";
}
}
The comment about python maps pretty directly to perl.
my #array = ("red", "blue", "green", ["purple", "orange"] );
foreach $item ( #array ) {
#if this was Python, it would be as simple as:
# if is not instance(item, array):
# # item wasn't a list
# item = [item]
if (ref $item ne 'ARRAY') {
$item = [ $item ];
}
}
though using map as in Borodin's answer would be more natural.
I'm wondering why you want to do this, but it's
#array = map { ref ? $_ : [ $_ ] } #array
And please don't call arrays #array; that's what the # is for.
Your comment is ridiculous
#if this was Python, it would be as simple as:
# if is not instance(item, array):
# # item wasn't a list
# item = [item]
If you were familiar with Perl then you wouldn't need to ask the question. You must be aware that there is no one-to-one translation from Python to Perl. Python is much less expressive than either Perl or C, but I can't imagine you demanding a simple conversion to C.
Please get over your bigotry.
If you push the values to a new array, you don't need to do more than evaluate whether or not $item is an arrayref:
#! perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
my #array=("red", "blue", "green", ["purple", "orange"]);
my #new_array;
foreach my $item (#array) {
if ( ref($item) eq 'ARRAY' ) {
push #new_array, $item;
}
else {
push #new_array, [$item];
}
}
print Dumper \#new_array;
Output from Dumper:
$VAR1 = [
[
'red'
],
[
'blue'
],
[
'green'
],
[
'purple',
'orange'
]
];
After a long day of learning more Perl than I ever thought/wanted to learn... here's what I think is a workable solution:
#! perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
my %the_dict = (duts =>
{dut_a => {UDF => 'hamnet'},
dut_b => {UDF => [ '1', '2', '3', ]},
dut_c => {UDF => [ 'Z' ], }});
print Dumper \%the_dict;
foreach my $dut (keys %{$the_dict{duts}}) {
# convert the dut's UDF value to an array if it wasn't already
if ( 'ARRAY' ne ref $the_dict{duts}->{$dut}{UDF} ) {
$the_dict{duts}->{$dut}{UDF} = [ $the_dict{duts}->{$dut}{UDF} ];
}
# now append a new value to the array
push(#{$the_dict{duts}{$dut}{UDF}}, 'works');
}
print Dumper \%the_dict;
when run we see these print-outs:
$VAR1 = {
'duts' => {
'dut_a' => {
'UDF' => 'hamnet'
},
'dut_c' => {
'UDF' => [
'Z'
]
},
'dut_b' => {
'UDF' => [
'1',
'2',
'3'
]
}
}
};
$VAR1 = {
'duts' => {
'dut_a' => {
'UDF' => [
'hamnet',
'works'
]
},
'dut_c' => {
'UDF' => [
'Z',
'works'
]
},
'dut_b' => {
'UDF' => [
'1',
'2',
'3',
'works'
]
}
}
};

Iterative Hash Set up

I have the following array...
my #array=("100 2", "300 1", "200 3");
From this array I want to iteratively construct a hash.
Current Script:
my %hash;
foreach (#array) {
my #split = (split /\s+/, $_);
%hash = ("$split[0]", "$split[1]");
}
Current Output:
$VAR1 = {
'200' => '3'
};
This is not what I want. My goal is...
Goal Output:
$VAR1 = {
'100' => '2'
'300' => '1'
'200' => '3'
};
What do I need to do?
I am using: Perl 5, Version 18
Assigning to a hash—something you are doing each pass of the loop—replaces its contents. Replace
%hash = ("$split[0]", "$split[1]");
with
$hash{$split[0]} = $split[1];
Alternatively, replace everything with
my %hash = map { split } #array;

Perl multi hash from list

I have a list with some values which are connected. I need to create a hashmap with keys and values from the list and merge together. But i don't really know how to do it.
Input:
my #in =(
'mgenv/1_2_3/parent.dx_environment',
'mgenv/1_2_3/doc/types.dat');
Expected output:
"{ $env => { $ver => [ $file1, $file2, ... ] } }"
I've tried these:
(1)
my #sack_files = (
'mgenv/1_2_3/parent.dx_environment',
'mgenv/1_2_3/doc/types.dat');
my $sack_tree = {};
my %hash=();
for( my $i=0; $i<scalar #sack_files; $i++){
my #array = split(/[\/]+/,$sack_files[$i]);
for(my $i=0;$i<(scalar #array)-1;$i++){
my $first = $array[$i];
my $second = $array[$i+1];
$hash{$first}=$second;
}
# merge
}
(2)
use Data::Dumper;
my #sack_files = (
'mgenv/1_2_3/parent.dx_environment',
'mgenv/1_2_3/doc/types.dat',
);
my $sack_tree = {};
my %hash=();
for( my $i=0; $i<scalar #sack_files; $i++){
my #array = split(/[\/]+/,$sack_files[$i]);
nest(\%hash,#array);
}
In the second case I get an error because when the loop variable i=1 ,the key/values already exists so maybe i have to check the previously added key/values. But I don't really know how.
I would really appreciate any ideas.
Just use push to add new members to an existing array in a hash of hashes. You have to dereference the array reference with #{ ... }.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
use Data::Dumper;
my #sack_files = qw( mgenv/1_2_3/parent.dx_environment
mgenv/1_2_3/doc/types.dat
mgenv/1_2_3/doc/etc.dat
mgenv/4_5_6/parent.dx_environment
mgenv/4_5_6/doc/types.dat
u5env/1_2_3/parent.dx_environment
u5env/1_2_3/doc/types.dat
u5env/4_5_6/parent.dx_environment
u5env/4_5_6/doc/types.dat
);
my %hash;
for my $sack_file (#sack_files) {
my ($env, $ver, $file) = split m{/}, $sack_file, 3;
push #{ $hash{$env}{$ver} }, $file;
}
print Dumper \%hash;
output
$VAR1 = {
'mgenv' => {
'1_2_3' => [
'parent.dx_environment',
'doc/types.dat',
'doc/etc.dat'
],
'4_5_6' => [
'parent.dx_environment',
'doc/types.dat'
]
},
'u5env' => {
'4_5_6' => [
'parent.dx_environment',
'doc/types.dat'
],
'1_2_3' => [
'parent.dx_environment',
'doc/types.dat'
]
}
};

PERL dynamically match arrays based on unique key

I'm trying to compare 2 huge arrays and want to use map. I am using unique key concept here to match the indexes.
My Arrays:
my #array1 = ( ['a','b','c','d'], ['e','f','g','h'], ['i','j','k','l'], ['m','n','o','p'], ['q','r','s','t']);
my #array2 = ( ['r','q','s','t'], ['b','a','c','d'], ['n','m','o','p'], ['f','e','g','h'], ['j','i','k','l']);
My unique Keys:
my #uk1 = (0,2,3);
my #uk2 = (1,2,3);
These arrays will be huge in size, over 30,000 indexes in each with over 20 elements in each index.
So effectively i create a map where
for ( my $j = 0; $j <= $#array1 ; $j++ )
{
my searchString;
for ( my $k = 0; $k <= $#uk1; $k++ )
{
if ( $k != 0 )
{
$searchString .= ","
}
$my searchString .= $array1[$j][$uk[$k];
}
my #result = map { $_ }
grep { join (",",$array2[$_][1],$array2[$_][2],$array2[$_][3]) ) =~ join(",",$array1[$j][0],$array1[$j][1],$array1[$j][2]) }
0 .. $#array;
}
returns matched indexes.
My problem is, how do i make this dependant on the unique keys? as the length of the unique key will keep changing and as far as i know i cannot dynamically create the $array2[$_] join part.
Hope my question is clear enough.
I want to have the logic that compares
$array1[$uk1[0]],$array1[$uk1[1]],$array1[$uk1[2]] and so on (depending on the number of keys in UK) with
$array2[$uk2[0]],$array2[$uk2[1]],$array2[$uk2[2]].......
Perhaps,
my #array1 = ( ['a','b','c','d'], ['e','f','g','h'], ['i','j','k','l'], ['m','n','o','p'], ['q','r','s','t']);
my #array2 = ( ['r','q','s','t'], ['b','a','c','d'], ['n','m','o','p'], ['f','e','g','h'], ['j','i','k','l']);
my #result;
for my $i (0 .. $#array1) {
push #result,
map { [$i, $_] }
grep {
"#{ $array1[$i] }[1,2,3]" eq "#{ $array2[$_] }[0,2,3]"
}
0 .. $#array2;
}
use Data::Dumper; print Dumper \#result;
output
$VAR1 = [
[
0,
1
],
[
1,
3
],
[
2,
4
],
[
3,
2
],
[
4,
0
]
];
What you want to use is an array slice:
But lets also make life easier:
for my $sample ( #array1 )
{
my $test= join(",", #$sample[#uk1]) ;
my #result = grep { $_ eq $test } map { join(",", #$_[#uk2] ) } #array2 ;
say "huzzah" if #result ;
}
Perl lets you specify multiple elements from an array via the "array slice":
my #list= ('a', 'b', 'c', 'd') ;
my #pieces= #list[1,3] ;

perl hash of arrays

I am trying to access elements of an array which is part of a hash.
for my $idx ( 0 .. $#vss ) {
push (#{$vsnhash->{$vss[$idx]}}, $vsports[$idx]);
}
print Dumper(\%$vsnhash);
($VAR1 = {
'name2' => [
'8001',
'8002'
],
'name1' => [
'8000'
]
};
I an able to access the keys with a foreach loop:
foreach my $key ( keys %$vsnhash ) {
print "$key\n";
}
How do I access the array of port numbers ('8001' , '8002') within the hash?
Thank you for the help!
while (my ($k, $v) = each %$vsnhash) {
print "$k: #$v\n";
}
foreach my $key ( keys %$vsnhash ) {
print "$key\n";
foreach my $port (#{$vsnhash->{key}}){
print "Port $port\n";
}
}
$vsnhash{name2}->[0]; #8001
$vsnhash{name2}->[1]; #8002
$vsnhash{name1}->[0]; #8000
Code wise:
foreach my $key (sort keys %vsnhash) {
foreach my $index (0..$#{$key}) {
print "\$vsnhash{$key}->[$index] = " . $vsnhash{$key}->[$index] . "\n";
}
}
The $#{$key} means the last entry in the array #{$key}. Remember that $key is a reference to an array while #{$key} is the array itself.
