Counting words in an Array

You will need to look at each array entry, count the fields in it, add them to your total and so on and so forth.
$count = 0 ;
foreach my $entry(@array){
# use your word count algorithm here
# add total to $count
}
print "Total words in array is: $count\n" ;
$count = 0 ;
foreach my $entry(@array){
# use your word count algorithm here
# add total to $count
}
print "Total words in array is: $count\n" ;
