Though s(world .. worked w/o /, it should be written s/(world | how )//gi;
Perl gurus, why does s(world |how )//gi w/o errors?
Wags ;)

Put the string in $_ and with
s(world |how )//gi;
If you don't take out a space then you get a couple of spaces:
Output(no space part of check (world|how):
Hello are you?
Output(w/ space part of check above):
Hello are you?

Subject: Stripping words from a string
Hey all,
Just wondering how I would go about stripping words from a string.
If I have a string that has the following...
$string = "Hello world how are you?";
How would I go about stripping the words 'how' and 'Hello' ignoring case
each time?
Would it go something like the following...
$string =~ s/.*hello/how\//gi;
Thx,
Da
