Hello. I have a python script that I would like to convert to perl. In it I am parsing
a data file looking for occurences of three consecutive lines:
series1 = """
slot-1 UP UP t3-card
slot-2 UP UP madd2-card
slot-3 UP UP madd2-card"""
or
series2 = """
slot-1 UP UP t3-card
slot-2 UP UP madd-card
slot-3 UP UP madd2-card"""
or
series3 = """
slot-1 UP UP t3-card
slot-2 UP UP madd2-card
slot-3 UP UP madd-card"""
If an occurce is found, then a counter is incremented for that specific series. My
question is does Perl have some way to match against mutliple lines, or a block of
text, like this or will I have to create a loop and match each line individually?
Thanks,
Jose
