How to write to a file under appropriate block?

[sangith]

Hi,

I have a file which is in the following format:

This file is classify.txt
#######Alphabets#########
.
.
.
#######Numbers##########
.
.
.

In my perl program, I initialize an array which has both numbers and alphabets.
I open the classify.txt file for writing.

1. The program will check each and every element in the array using the foreach loop.

2. It has to then write to this classify.txt file accordingly under either Alphabets or Numbers. [That is, if the element is a alphabet, it has to write under the #######Alphabets######### and if it is a number, it has to write under the #######Numbers########## block in classify.txt file]

I have no problem with the first part.

Can someone please let me know how I can write to a file like the way I mentioned in [2].

I would appreciate your response.

Thanks,
Sangeetha

Lets see what you have tried so far.

The experts on this site are more than happy to help you with your problems but they cannot do your assignment/program for you. Attempt the assignment/program yourself first and post questions regarding any difficulties you have or about a particular function of the code that you don't know how to achieve.

Please read the Posting Guidelines and particularly the Coursework Posting Guidlines.

Then when you are ready post a new question in this thread.

Thanks Miller for the useful advice. I totally agree. I am not a student.
Although I should'nt be lazy to think. Programming is a lot of fun only if I think and attempt the problem myself. That will also help me learn so much.
I will definitely post questions only if I face any difficulty in the middle.

Thanks.

Right now, I am reading the file into an array and then using Regex, I am trying to place the elements under appropriate sections. I am positive that I am going to finish this problem with my approach.

Very good. If you get stuck ask a question, but please post the code you have written up to that point.
