i need to replace "comma" with whitespace for string "abc,xyz"
the output shud be "abc xyz"
the above regular expression does not do that . please suggest

The white space meta-character does not work on the replace side of a
substitution. Use a space character:
$target =~ s/\,/ /g;
Some people prefer to use the hexadecimal format because in some fonts,
it's hard to distinguish between // and / /. Having something visible
makes the meaning clear.
Like this:
$target =~ s/\,/\x20/g;
