I have som strings that I want to clean up. They can contain
digits, some special characters (white space etc) and a comma and
all I want to keep is the digits and the comma? Any idea how I
could do this?
Use the s/// operator (explained in "perldoc perlop").
The PATTERN may consist of the character class [^\d,] which represents
any character except for digits and commas. Read more about character
classes in e.g. "perldoc perlretut".
