I left out the dollar sign in the look up in the line I posted and also didn't explain the use of the reverse hash, you're changing it on each iteration (here's the code as also posted on Perl Monks this morning Smilie )
Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;

open (my $code , "<", 'ccode.c')||die "Could not open ccode.c\n\t$!";

my %data = ('24'=>"temperature",
            '25'=>"pressure",
            '26'=>"humidity",
);

my %nums = ('24'=>"information1: ",
            '25'=>"information2: ",
            '26'=>"information3: ",
);

%data = reverse %data;

my $test_string="(" .join("|", keys %data).")" ;

while(<$code>){
    if (/$test_string/){
        $_=$nums{$data{$1}}.$_;
    }
    print $_
}

The first version of this document appeared on Perl Monks, where several people had useful suggestions. Thank you, Perl Monks. A special thanks to Damian Conway, who didn't only suggest important changes, but also took the time to count the number of listed features and make a Perl 6 version to show that Perl will stay Perl.
