Thank you so much Ravinder for welcoming me and giving the solution. It worked as expected

Two requests
1) could you please let me know if each file has n number of columns for example 32 columns in files a 32 columns in file b and 32 columns in file c. column header and column number will remain same in each file.how can I get the desired result.

FIles are Tab delimited
a.txt

Code:
Name 9/1 9/2 9/3.................9/30

b.txt
Code:
 Name 9/1 9/2 9/3....................9/30

c.txt
Code:
Name 9/1 9/2 9/3......................9/30

2) can you please explain the code sorry still learning

Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide			       Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam; $lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages' $code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa' @codes = all_langfam_codes(); @names = all_langfam_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO 639-5. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5 language family codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha'); $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
