From: "Joseph L. Casale" <jcas...@activenetwerx.com> What is the correct way to quickly assign the result of a regex against a cmdline arg into a new variable:
my $var = ($ARGV[0] =~ s/(.*)foo/$1/i); Obviously that's incorrect but is there a quick way without intermediate assignment? Thanks! jlc Yes, you can use: ( my $var = $ARGV[0] ) =~ s/(.*)foo/$1/i; Octavian -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
