you can do this in perl my $example = 11-c0-4f-40-47-b4;
$example =~ /(\d+)\-(\w\d)\-(\d\w)\-(\d+)\-(\d+)\-(\w\d)/; my $one = ${1}; #11 my $two = ${2}; #c0 etc... when you have more than one digits you must write \d+ and also for words \w+. regular expretions are case sensitive for example if you have a word and a digit you write this \w\d and when you want to get it you put $ not %.
