I have the following problem:
I just read in a file <FILE>...
in ONE of line of the file, there is a word I need to
substitute...
but I realize that:
$a = <FILE> would assign $a the first line of the file
@a = <FILE> world assign each line of the file as an
element of @a...
now...s/search/replace/ only works for string...
is there a way to avoid looping through the file (or
elements of @a to do this search/replace?)
now the way I am doing is:
foreach $m (@a){
$m =~ s/search/replace/;
}
is there way to avoid this loop? (such as reading the
whole file into a single scalar?)
