Hi
I have a line as shown below:
//abc/... (<sometext>)
Now i want to substitute (<sometext>) with blank space. How do i do it.
my $string = '//abc/... (<sometext>)'; $string =~ s/\(\<sometext\>\)//; print $string;
I tried s/\(\Q<sometext>\)//g. This isnt working.
Next i have a line as below
//abc#4.
Now i want an output //abc. So how do i remove the numeric value and the preceding #?
my $string = '//abc#4'; $string =~ s/\#\d$//; print $string;
perldoc perlre is nice.
I also use perl via CLI (perl -e 'test code here') to work out things like this at times.
HTH :)
