Hi All,
I wanted to check whether the user input is only a number and does contain any alphabet/s anywhere i.e. starting, end or in-between. Can somebody tell me how to do this?

How about simply m/^\d+$/

if($input =~ m/^\d+$/) {
  print 'I am digits hear me roar';
} else {
  print 'Silly rabbit, I am not all digits but must be to continue';
}
