I am trying to write a function which creates a set of
numbered arrays for me (@array1, @array2, @array3 . .
.. @arrayn) so I can keep some of the input from a file
I am reading in. I'm not sure if it's possible in the
first place, or, if so, if my syntax is anywhere close
to correct. This is the code I have tried. It gives
me syntax errors about the last few lines and won't
run. I would appreciate any help or being pointed
towards books which address this. Please excuse me if
it is a stupid question. I am just starting.
Thanks.

$count = 0;
$arraycount = 0;
while (<DATA>) {
$line = $_;
@line_items = split (/\s+/, $line);
$array($arraycount)[0] = $line_items[3];
$array($arraycount)[1] = $line_items[42];
#etc, assigning some of the junk from input into my
#special array that i want for sorting later
++$count;
++$array_count;
}
