Re: Question abount counting the total number of lines and put to an variable?

Marco schreef:

I have a question about how to count the total of line that shows on
the screen. Here below is my code..

open (MYFILE, '123.txt');
while (<MYFILE>) {
if ($_ =~ /^User:/) {
print $_;
}
}
close (MYFILE);

then it will shows the following on the screen,

User: ABC
User: DEF

Is there any way that I can get the total of lines that show on the
screen and put to a variable? " Thank you..


#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

my $fn = '123.txt';
{ open my $fh, "<", $fn or die "\n${fn}: $!";
print "\n${fn}\n";
print "-"x length($fn), "\n";
my $i = 0;
while (<$fh>) {
/^User:/ and ++$i and print;
}
print "\n$i lines\n";
}
__END__
