Hello,

I am looking for the $num to treated as a string and get the number of characters,
in this case I am look for 3 to be returned.

Later I want to use this number to pad a string with zeros....
Thanks!
Dave 

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

$num =123;

($match) = ($num =~ m/(\d)/);


print "$match \n";  # should print 3 

__END__
