Hi!
Hello,
Can the perl split function split a random 40 character string into five 8 character strings?
No.
With random I mean that there is no special pattern in the 40 character string that can be used as split markers.
You should probably use a match operator.
my @strings = $string =~ /.{1,8}/sg;
Of course you could use substr or unpack as well.
