Right now it is not working and I was wondering if I sent the code maybe someone with more experience with this will see the problem. I am very new to this. The line I am trying to create the variables from is
C6xxxSimulator(TI) 61 1 and the code is $word = <DATA>; #Assign the next line to the $word variable chomp $word; print "$word\n"; my ($target, $count, $num) = $word = ~ /^\s*(\S+)\s+(\S+)\s+(\S+)\s*$/; print "Target = $target \n"; print "Count = $count \n"; and the output is C6xxxSimulator(TI) 61 1 Target = 4294967295 Count = Does anyone have any ideas? I'm lost. >From: "Tanton Gibbs" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "Tanton Gibbs" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "Michael Stearman" ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Re: Creating variables of a string >Date: Tue, 2 Apr 2002 12:12:11 -0500 > >Actually, since the others are numbers you could replace the last two \S+ >with \d+ >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Tanton Gibbs" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To: "Michael Stearman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Sent: Tuesday, April 02, 2002 12:06 PM >Subject: Re: Creating variables of a string > > > > my ($word, $num1, $num2) = $string =~ /^\s*(\S+)\s+(\S+)\s+(\S+)\s*$/; > > > > This matches > > ^ - the start of the string > > \s* - any number (including 0) of spaces > > (\S+) - any number (not including 0) of NON spaces.
