find an available item in array
Dear all,

I'm have a sorted array like this:
177
220
1001
2000
2001
2003
2005
notice that 2002 and 2004 are NOT in array.

Then user input a number INPUT, our script should return OUTPUT value like this:
if INPUT is not in array => OUTPUT=INPUT
if INPUT is in array => OUTPUT is the smallest number that larger than INPUT
and should NOT exist in array!


Example with this array:
INPUT => OUTPUT
1000 => 1000
1001 => 1002
2000 => 2002
2005 => 2006

Can anyone help me to complete this on bash shell!

net::sip::simple::rtp

Net::SIP::Simple::RTP(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				Net::SIP::Simple::RTP(3pm)

NAME

       Net::SIP::Simple::RTP - simple RTP handling for Net::SIP::Simple

SYNOPSIS

	 my $echo_10 = Net::SIP::Simple->rtp( 'media_recv_echo', 'output.pcmu-8000', 10 );
	 my $announce = Net::SIP::Simple->rtp( 'media_send_recv', 'announce.pcmu-8000', 2 );

DESCRIPTION

       This package handles simple RTP stuff for testing and small applications.  It provides methods for receiving PCUM/8000 data and for echoing
       them back or for sending and receiving PCMU/8000 data.

       It's used from method rtp in Net::SIP::Simple.

SUBROUTINES

       media_recv_echo ( [ OUTPUT, DELAY ] )
	   Receives RTP data and echos them back to the sender.  If OUTPUT is given it will be used as the file for saving the received data
	   without the RTP header.

	   OUTPUT might also be a callback which gets the payload as argument.

	   If DELAY is >0 the data will not be echoed back immediatly but with an delay of DELAY packets (e.g.	with DELAY 10 it will send back
	   the first packet after it received the 10th packet).  If DELAY is <0 the data will not be echoed back.  If DELAY is not given or equal
	   0 the data will be echoed back immediatly.

	   If no traffic comes in for more then 10 seconds it will hang up the call because of inactivity.

       media_send_recv ( INPUT, [ REPEAT, OUTPUT ] )
	   Will read data from file INPUT and send them as RTP to peer.  It will assume that each data block in INPUT consists of 160 bytes, which
	   is right for PCMU/8000 without RTP header. The RTP header will be added to the data.

	   If it reaches the end of the file it will stop unless REPEAT is given in which case it will repeat the sending REPEAT times (if REPEAT
	   is less 0 it will repeat forever e.g. until the other party hangs up). On stopping it will invoke the callback cb_rtp_done from the
	   connection params for the Net::SIP::Simple::Call or if this is not given it will close the call by issuing a BYE.

	   INPUT might also be a callback usable by invoke_callback in Net::SIP::Util which returns the data to send. In this case REPEAT is not
	   used.

	   Incoming data will be written to the optional OUTPUT file like in media_recv_echo. The content from OUTPUT has the same format as INPUT
	   or OUTPUT from media_recv_echo.

	   OUTPUT might also be a callback which gets the payload as argument.

	   If no traffic comes in for more then 10 seconds it will hang up the call because of inactivity.
