Exercise: Parse ini file

---

An ini file has sections starting by the name of the section in square brackets and within each section there are key = value pairs with optional spaces around the "=" sign. The keys can only contain letters, numbers, underscore or dash. In addition there can be empty lines and lines starting with # which are comments.

Given a filename, generate a 2 dimensional hash and then print it out with Data::Dumper. Example ini file:

examples/regex-perl/inifile.ini

# comment
[alpha]
 
base  = moon
ship= alpha 3
 
[earth]
   # ?
base=London   
ship=  x-wing

Result

$VAR1 = {
          'earth' => {
                       'base' => 'London',
                       'ship' => 'x-wing'
                     },
          'alpha' => {
                       'base' => 'moon',
                       'ship' => 'alpha 3'
                     }
        };
