Hi Madhu. You have two different questions here!

To replace the string of non-space characters ending in '_EF' with nothing, you do this: $str =~ s/\S+_ET//; which leaves you with " 13 " > basically i wanto get result 13 in $str. > > how to do this? It depends on what '13' looks like in general in the strings you're processing. If it's always the first non-space thing after the start of the line then $str =~ /(\w+)/; print $1, "\n"; prints '13'. If it's more complex than that then ask us again. HTH, Rob -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
