Rob,
I have already picked up those functions. I think they are virtually the

Brian,
Thanks for re-directing me back to my original question, and thank again for
your well researched comment. I intend to dig deeper into string...hopefully
know a bit of the internals.

There's no string type in Perl, internals notwithstanding. There's scalars,
and a scalar can hold a string - If you care to dig deeper, that string is
stored

Shlomi,
Yea, that makes sense now.

Hello,
I would like to know how to access character from string lateral.
Say I have
$foo = "From Big Brother Africa";
I would want to print each of the characters of $foo on its own.
In some languages string type is just array/list of characters. What is it
in Perl?
my @characters = split /[\s]/, $foo;
foreach my $letter(@characters )
{
print $letter ;
}
or
my @characters = split /[\s]/, $foo;
print join("\n" , @characters);
Untested code though.

Without knowing what your code looks like, the ord value of the
character, and what system you are running on (is EBCDIC, ascii, or
some other character set?) it is doubtful

You should be able to \ them just like any other character, if that
isn't working you might try backslashing the \. Aka, \\ or even .
