Hi All

I want to search a string for a special character and
count the occurance. 

My code is as follows :

----------------------------------

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

my $a = "a:b:c:d:e:f:\:↔:↔:";

my $count = ($a =~ tr/\chr(29)//);

print $count;

----------------------------------

Following code works but I prefer to use chr(29)
instead of ↔

my $count = ($a =~ tr/↔//);

Please advice.

Regards
