how to search for a number of files in a directory using perl.
8  1305 
Hi Ram...
This is the basic example
use Cwd;
$path=getcwd();
opendir(DIR,$path) || die ("Path is invalid\n");
@files=grep(/\./,readdir(DIR));
$i=0;
foreach $fil (@files)
{
print "$fil\n";
$i++;
}
print "Total number of files $i";
hope this will help you..

Did you happen to see the example provided nicely, above, by "savanm"?
Have you tried that example, or any other for that matter? If you are working on some code to do what you are asking and are having problems, then please post your code so we can help you with it. We aren't going to write it for you, but we will help you with your issues if we can.
Regards,
Jeff

read the previous posts, look up the functions mentioned, (opendir, grep, readdir, freach, etc, etc, etc) try and understand them, write some code, test the code, then ask some questions about the code you wrote and where you are having problems. Simply repeating your question over is not going to inspire anyone to want to help you. You need to show some effort.
If you had even looked at the book I posted a link for you, you would have come across chapter 6 page 213 which probably will help you.
