The /net|gaat/ construct is the most usual one, but this may
be of some use to you:
for ( $node ) {
if ( /net/ || /gaat/ ) {
:
}
}
which makes use of the 'foreach' loop aliasing each list element
with $_ within the loop. The loop will only execute once and
within it you can make use of built-in operators that use $_ as a
default parameter.
