Yeah!!! Pleasure!!!

If you print the "@result" array it will have the following values.
Code:
a b c d e 1 1 2 2 2 1 2 2 2 3 1 1 1 1 2 1 1 1 1 4 1 1 1 1 6

Your actual requirement is to find the occurrence of the values in the e column

Your input data:
Code:
a b c d e
1 1 2 2 2
1 2 2 2 3
1 1 1 1 2
1 1 1 1 4
1 1 1 1 6

So from the above values every fifth value is the e column's value.
Thats why I have incremented by 5 to get every 5th element.
Got it? Smilie
