I am looking for some suggestions on any advanced functions Perl might have that i might be missing.
Basically, I have an array with column widths. Next I have a string. I would like to extract the number of characters based on the column- widths in the array. I have already tried using substr but is there any other way of extracting? eg: @col_width = (4,2,17); my $str = 'Perl is amazing language'; I'd like a one-line command (if possible) to store 'Perl' in $a, 'is' in $b & 'amazing language' in $c.
