Jim,

Why do you call us Jim?


[...] how would you tell Perl to pick 'cd' of 'abcd' and 'abcd' itself and 'pq' 
of 'pqrs' and 'pqrs' itself, and nothing else, from an array ( = 'abcdpqrsxyz') 
by a single statement.

Why an array? Don't you mean a string?


my $s = 'abcdpqrsxyz';

my @match = $s =~ /ab(cd)(pq)rs/;
