It will just print the content of the array so you can see what is in the array. Its just to verify that this code works and the array holds data you need to proceed further with your program. So, run this code and report back what gets printed:

Code:
@inputdata=`zcat inputfile.Z`;
print "$_\n" for @inputdata;
