Hi guys,

How do I remove extra spaces from the start of a string? I won't know if or
how many spaces there are but I need to remove them and leave any spaces
after the first character:

$var = "    12;    4;NA; ";
# turned into:
$var = "12;    4;NA; ";

I'd imagine I'll use $var =~ s/[something here]//g; but I don't know the
exact code.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Ewen
