[Corpora-List] Cleaning text to take word frequency

[True Friend]

Thanks for your message. The Perl script is written not by me, the person is
a subscriber of this list who made it on my request. It is obviously better
to use hashtables and C# do have hashtables also. The reason of using arrays
is just to practice what I've learnt. Your valuable suggestions about
delimiters and changing the code will help me to make it better. I'll use
hashtalbes next time and will apply better methods approach and will remove
duplicate methods.
Thank for your kind suggestions.
Regards
