#!perl -w use strict $_ = '0.0.0.0.1.10.1.30.1.10.1.30.1'; my @MyWorka = (); @MyWorka = split(/\./, $_); my @MyWorkb = (); my @MyWorkc = (); my @MyWorkd = (); @MyWorkb = splice(@MyWorka,-4,4); @MyWorkc = splice(@MyWorka,-4,4); @MyWorkd = splice(@MyWorka,-1,1); printf "%-s, %-s, %-s, %-s\n", join('.', @MyWorka), @MyWorkd, join('.', @MyWorkc), join('.', @MyWorkb); Output: 0.0.0.0, 1, 10.1.30.1, 10.1.30.1 Wags ;) > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > New Yahoo!
