Please forgive my ignorance up front. I'm very much a beginner. Ok,
I'm trying to be able to look at the individual characters of a string
with the ultimate hope of being able to parse messages based on a
series of messages of variable length. I thought I had found the
answer with the following text:
use String;
$str = new String("$line[0]");
print "The string is '$str\n";
printf("Length of the string is %d characters\n", $str->length);
printf("The first character of the string is %s\n", $str->charAt(0))
But, when I run the program I get the following error:
Can't locate String.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /System/Library/Perl/
5.8.8/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/5.8.8 /Library/

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ItchExercise.pl line 8.
Is there a substitute I can use? Or can I download something
somewhere?
Help!
And thanks in advance!
