RE: A regular expression question

Title: A regular expression question

Your format does not match XXX-XXX-XXX so I'll guess you mean three fields delimited by a dash.

 

#### here's one way to do it

 

$string = "sct-1.62-1";

print "$1\n" if ($string =~ /^.+\-(.+)\-.+$/)

Thanks a lot in advance!
