I'm not sure the other answers you have had address all the problem. They
have all addressed the problem of (possibly multiple) whitespace (\s) at the
end of a line. You have asked to remove all the newline characters in a
string.
I would propose
$string =~ s/\n//g;
The s does a substitute; the \n is a newline character; the // contains
nothing, and achieves the removal; the g find all the occurrences;
The end result may not be what you want, hence the advice elsewhere to get
rid of carriage returns (\r).
