Hi, if I have a script that accepts any combination of the 5 or maybe even more options, say, option1, option2, option3...
Now, after collecting the options, for each option, there is a corresponding regexp pattern. I will then build an if statement, where the test should be, all the options entered must match (&&) otherwise, return false. I'm thinking this can only be done by nested if's: if ($word =~ /$option1/ && $word =~ /$option2){ if ($word =~ /$option3/ && $word =~ /$option4){ if ($word =~ /$optionN/){ print "All pattern matched!\n"; } } } Now I'm thinking, it is quite impossible to dynamically create all those if tests. Perhaps I can just open a file for writing, write a new perl script which will have those codes, and execute it at the end. Is there a better way of doing this? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
