Subject: RE: split and ^ character
I'm trying to figure how to get the following code to work.
I've tried a
few combos, but nothing seems to get it right. I'm guessing
it's something
simple, but I couldn't nail down what it was. I realize that
^ is a special
operator but I don't see a way to escape it, given that it's
input from a
scalar variable.
$subrecdelim = '^';
$mystr = 'cat^dog^pony^rat';
@array = split(/$subrecdelim/, $mystr);
@array = split(/\Q$subrecdelim\E/, $mystr);
\Q - Quotes nonword characters until \E
foreach (@array) {
print - $_\n;
}
Any hints would be appreciated.
Thanks!

RE: foreach ( hash element that maybe scalar, maybe array)
Thanks for that Charles -
foreach my $bit ( values %bits ) {
if ( ref $bit eq 'ARRAY' ) {
yep, that helps a lot. I didn't know ref existed, very useful. I am still a bit
surprised there
isn't a way that perl can just infer what to do from context like it usually
does. Still, this
opens up ways to fix a couple of other outstanding issues I have as well.
Thanks loads!

Do the same thing for 3600 seconds and you'll have the same for hours.
Do the same for 86400 and you'll have the same for days...

\t, \s and : do not need to be in a character class and \1 is deprecated for $1.
This should be equivalent:
s/(\t\d{2}:\d{2}\s)/$1/;
You should also be careful about the leading and trailing WS - this
would require leading and trailing WS of any kind and remove it.
s/(\s+\d{2}:\d{2}\s+)/$1/;
You could also replace it with a single leading and trailing space:
