Thank you Corona . For the below code i get the list files names,size but want to get the count of the files from ftp server. which i am not able to get it

Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use Net::FTP;
$ftp = Net::FTP->new("Hostname");
$ftp->login('username', 'password');
$ftp->cwd("<PATH>");
$ftp->binary;

my @filenames=$ftp->ls();
foreach (@filenames)

 print $_, " File Size: ", $ftp->size($_), "\n";
}
$ftp->quit();

Your array is @filenames.

The length would therefore be $#filenames + 1.

If you don't want it to loop, don't put it inside the loop. Put it after the loop.
