Hello Perl Community,
I have string variable, $msg, assigned the following text.
OCT 31 - Attended CSP weekly meeting. Engaged in third party SCADA host (ZedI)
problem in Fairview district
NOV 1 - Preparation and attendance of Normandville Phase 1 meetings.
NOV 2 - Maintained project list. Troubleshoot software licensing issues.
NOV 3 - Attended COG facilities meeting. Follow-up of Autosol software licenses.
I want to split the string into an array just as it looks. The string does have
carriage returns in it.
I tried
@ans = split (/\r/s, $msg);
@ans = split (/\r/g, $msg);
@ans = split (/\r\n/s, $msg);
@ans = split (/\r\n/g, $msg);
and I get no split.
For some reason, the regexp can't find the carriage return and/or line feed.
Now I'm thinking about somehow splitting the string using \w{3}\s\d+\s-\s
Would a look-behind assertion be better?
Perhaps a map function call?
Thank you.
