The range operator doesn't work as you want in a regex character
class, and neither does the '|'.
I would do it like this:
#! perl
No I don't see why I need (). (but I do see an opportunity to learn
something...). The kludge I posted does work (with the sample data in the
original post). Why would () be required? If I understood the post
correctly the task did not require capturing any numbers.

Dave,
One possiblity:
use strict;
open(IN, "lfile.txt"); # ho;d the line from the example in the orig post
my $p1 = join('|', (512..520));
my $p2 = join('|', (528..568));
my $p3 = join('|', (576..578));
my $p4 = join('|', (592..600));
my $p5 = join('|', (608..622));
my $p6 = join('|', (624..6
oops...forgot parens around the \d+...

I don't think you can "or" in the middle of a character class. I think that
if you wanted to use that approach, you should have a separate character
class for each "or".

I read a file line by line, on each line if any numbers in the range
specified below exist between comas,
Example:
Line 1> hello,world,123,,
Line 2> The grass,456, is,greener,
Line 3> On,533,the,other, side
Line 4> As, long, as the,1,grass is watered
Line 5> Bye,world,680,,
print the line
10 matches
