    Reading very large files in Perl

    Mike, Thanks for the response. I've found it very common for Perl to cause core dumps when reading very large files. I tried your code and had the same problems. I watched one version of the program and saw the panic:popstack errors flying down the screen. I just can't figure out why it...

    This function would be used repeatedly as I read through a file and pass the zip code to the function. The not_found string is only sent back if I can't find the zip code in the linked list. My hope is that most of the zip codes will be found and that I will return a string value pulled from...
