Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl

open (FH, '>filereindex.txt') or die 'Could not open file';
my @line = <FH>;
  if ($line == 1) {
    print "NUMBER 1";
  } elsif ( $line == 0) {
   print FH 1;

  }

I m using the above,

if fileindex.txt is 0, then it will write 1 to the file: fileindex.txt [expected result that I want]
BUT
if fileindex.txt is 1, then it will do nothing, I want it to print NUMBER 1

I remove the > from the code. IF filereindex.txt = 1, it will print NUMBER 1 [result that I want]
BUT
if filereindex.txt=0, it do nothing [i wanted it to write 1 to the filereindex.txt]
