RE: split on _ and on -

[Wagner-David]

        I did the following:

$var = 'abcd_abc-hjdfd_adfadfa-adfadfadf_fadfafd-adfad';

my @MyData = split(/[-_]/, $_);
foreach (@MyData) {
   printf "%-s\n", $var;
 }

        Tried /-/ then /_/ and both split as expected. The one above split on - and _ 
as expected.
The output:

abcd
abc
hjdfd
adfadfa
adfadfadf
fadfafd
adfad

Wags ;)

Hi people, just need a quick reference.

how do i split on underscore?( _ ) and on hyphen? ( - )?

i tried split(/\_/, $var) but didn't work
and I also tried split ('_', $var) but didn't work also.
