How to sort list of directories in descending order in perl?
Hi,
I have a problem . I have few directories like inpTDT_1, inpTDT_2, inpTDT_3 and so on inside HOME directory . In one of my perl script (which is in my HOME), the above directories like inpTDT_1, inpTDT_2, inpTDT_3 are sorting out in an order So I wanted to sort all the inpTDT_1, inpTDT_2, inpTDT_3 and so on directories in Descending order . based on _* Value .How can I do that ???
Please give fast Response.

FYI,
Code:
foreach $regress_dir (<$wdir/regress_*>) {
        if (-e "$regress_dir/$vdb_dir") {
            $cov_dirs = sprintf "$regress_dir/$vdb_dir $cov_dirs";
            print "Regress_directories are $cov_dirs and loop_variable is $regress_dir \n";
} else {}
