Sounds like homework???

Like this:
Code:
$file = "count.txt";
open( FILE, "< $file" ) or print "Error Reading file\n";
$count = 0;
while ( <FILE> ) {
        $count += $_;

}
print $count;
close FILE;


This actually will ONLY print the sum of all the lines. But you can probabally figure out how to get each line.

thanks ikon for replying.

It is basically to understand loops.

It is not a file.

It's a perl script that doing this output and i want to take the output and add them

Here is my code
Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;

my ( @m, $i, $j, $m, $y, $z, $fld, $sum );
for ( $i = 1; $i <= 10; $i++ ) {
   for ( $j = 1; $j <= $i; $j++ ) {
   print "$j\n";
   @m = $j ** 2;
   print "@m\n";
}

 }
~

basically i want to add each loop.

Please help.

thanks,
