Error thanks a lot, its working fine...but reading in a loop ..is it possible???

Thanks for all your prompt and valuable reponse.
But, in actual scenario, I have to read the data from the file using a while-do-done loop.
Each line I read from the file contains some data, from where I am using grep+cut to read some specific portion from few specific records.And, that specic portion contains those (+)ve and (-)ve values.

So, please let me know is it possible to sum up those numbers in the above scenario?

Test::BDD::Cucumber::Harness::Data(3pm) 		User Contributed Perl Documentation		   Test::BDD::Cucumber::Harness::Data(3pm)

NAME
Test::BDD::Cucumber::Harness::Data - Builds up an internal data representation of test passes / failures VERSION
version 0.11 DESCRIPTION
A Test::BDD::Cucumber::Harness subclass which collates test data ATTRIBUTES
features An array-ref in which we store all the features executed, and completed. Until "feature_done" is called, it won't be in here. current_feature current_scenario current_step The current feature/step/scenario for which we've had the starting method, but not the "_done" method. feature feature_done Feature hashref looks like: { object => Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Feature object scenarios => [] } scenario scenario_done Scenario hashref looks like: { object => Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Scenario object dataset => Data hash the scenario was invoked with steps => [], } step step_done Step hashref looks like: { context => Test::BDD::Cucumber::StepContext object result => Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Result object (after step_done) } feature_status scenario_status step_status Accepting one of the data-hashes above, returns a Test::BDD::Cucumber::Model::Result object representing it. If it's a Feature or a Scenario, then it returns one representing all the child objects. find_scenario_step_by_name Given a Scenario and a string, searches through the steps for it and returns the data-hash where the Step Object's "<-"text>> matches the string.
