Correct because unless you have abc && efg && hij in the $_ it will not
work because that is prbably not what you are after.
if you are looking for all three to be there, then one way would be:
push @output,$_ if /$str1/ && /$str2/ && /$str3/ ;
which says if you find all three of the variables then put onto @output
otherwise bypass.
But this is making the assumption you are not LOOKING for && as part of
the string.
