Hi all, I'm really stupid lately with Perl and stuff, but I got this list of screen names and I made it into an array in perl called @sns. I want to count the amount of times each name shows up in that array and I want to make an array of each name in the original array, but only occuring once. adarc22 adarc22 adarc22 adarc22 alldayyesterday alldayyesterday babygurl2835 babygurl2835 bctictac8 bctictac8 beth42085 cc skillet ccgirl436 ccgirl436 devilchik205 dublindamien e is happy e is happy fritzilldo ilaughatyourlife jea9f2oo3 katsie236 kelzy16 lauren md 6 9 mastahuy85 meikman99 meikman99 reggie645 reggie645 reggie645 reggie645 reggie645 reggie645 reggie645 russh2112 russh2112 sllissa85 superman lmd 69 ...is my original array but I want a new array with each name in this array appearing only once and count each name's occurance in an additional array, even a 2d array works. (if you can do that in Perl...?) Thanks a lot, Christopher J. Umina To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
