avoid open file to check field.

Hi Everyone,

Code:
[root@]# cat a.txt
94,aqqc,62345907,
5,aeec,77,

[root@]# cat 1.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use Date::Manip;
open(my $FA, "/root/a.txt") or die "$!";
while(<$FA>) {
        chomp;
        my @tmp=split(/\,/, $_);
        if (index($tmp[1], "qq") ne -1) {
                print "$_\n";
        }
}
close ($FA);

[root@]# perl 1.pl
94,aqqc,62345907,

As we can see, if i want to print out this a.txt, but without the line field 1 value contains "qq", i can use open the file method.

Wonderring if there is any more simple way to do that, more efficient one, image i have 1000lines for the a.txt? Smilie

Thanks

Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::ProhibitTwoArgOpen(3pUser Contributed Perl DocumentatPerl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::ProhibitTwoArgOpen(3pm)

NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::ProhibitTwoArgOpen - Write "open $fh, q{<}, $filename;" instead of "open $fh, "<$filename";". AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution. DESCRIPTION
The three-argument form of "open" (introduced in Perl 5.6) prevents subtle bugs that occur when the filename starts with funny characters like '>' or '<'. The IO::File module provides a nice object-oriented interface to filehandles, which I think is more elegant anyway. open( $fh, '>output.txt' ); # not ok open( $fh, q{>}, 'output.txt' ); # ok use IO::File; my $fh = IO::File->new( 'output.txt', q{>} ); # even better! It's also more explicitly clear to define the input mode of the file, as in the difference between these two: open( $fh, 'foo.txt' ); # BAD: Reader must think what default mode is open( $fh, '<', 'foo.txt' ); # GOOD: Reader can see open mode This policy will not complain if the file explicitly states that it is compatible with a version of perl prior to 5.6 via an include statement, e.g. by having "require 5.005" in it. CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options. NOTES
There are two cases in which you are forced to use the two-argument form of open. When re-opening STDIN, STDOUT, or STDERR, and when doing a safe pipe open, as described in perlipc. SEE ALSO
