Comparing values.

ive got loads of comparisons to do and was wondering if there is a quicker way anyone can point me to.
If the array @match contains all the punctuation from a file, and i have to count occurances of each, then is there a short way.

this is what i will have to use for each character.

code:
foreach(@match){
  if($_ eq '&'){
    $ampersand++;
    }
   elsif($_ eq '$'){
    $dollar++;
    }
   elsif(......etc..
