=head2 How do I process an entire hash?
-Use the each() function (see L<perlfunc/each>) if you don't care
-whether it's sorted:
+(contributed by brian d foy)
+
+There are a couple of ways that you can process an entire hash. You
+can get a list of keys, then go through each key, or grab a one
+key-value pair at a time.
- while ( ($key, $value) = each %hash) {
- print "$key = $value\n";
+To go through all of the keys, use the C<keys> function. This extracts
+all of the keys of the hash and gives them back to you as a list. You
+can then get the value through the particular key you're processing:
+
+ foreach my $key ( keys %hash ) {
+ my $value = $hash{$key}
+ ...
}
-If you want it sorted, you'll have to use foreach() on the result of
-sorting the keys as shown in an earlier question.
+Once you have the list of keys, you can process that list before you
+process the hashh elements. For instance, you can sort the keys so you
+can process them in lexical order:
+
+ foreach my $key ( sort keys %hash ) {
+ my $value = $hash{$key}
+ ...
+ }
+
+Or, you might want to only process some of the items. If you only want
+to deal with the keys that start with C<text:>, you can select just
+those using C<grep>:
+
+ foreach my $key ( grep /^text:/, keys %hash ) {
+ my $value = $hash{$key}
+ ...
+ }
+
+If the hash is very large, you might not want to create a long list of
+keys. To save some memory, you can grab on key-value pair at a time using
+C<each()>, which returns a pair you haven't seen yet:
+
+ while( my( $key, $value ) = each( %hash ) ) {
+ ...
+ }
+
+The C<each> operator returns the pairs in apparently random order, so if
+ordering matters to you, you'll have to stick with the C<keys> method.
+
+The C<each()> operator can be a bit tricky though. You can't add or
+delete keys of the hash while you're using it without possibly
+skipping or re-processing some pairs after Perl internally rehashes
+all of the elements. Additionally, a hash has only one iterator, so if
+you use C<keys>, C<values>, or C<each> on the same hash, you can reset
+the iterator and mess up your processing. See the C<each> entry in
+L<perlfunc> for more details.

it?

=head2 What is C</o> really for?
-X</o>
+X</o, regular expressions> X<compile, regular expressions>
-Using a variable in a regular expression match forces a re-evaluation
-(and perhaps recompilation) each time the regular expression is
-encountered. The C</o> modifier locks in the regex the first time
-it's used. This always happens in a constant regular expression, and
-in fact, the pattern was compiled into the internal format at the same
-time your entire program was.
-
-Use of C</o> is irrelevant unless variable interpolation is used in
-the pattern, and if so, the regex engine will neither know nor care
-whether the variables change after the pattern is evaluated the I<very
-first> time.
-
-C</o> is often used to gain an extra measure of efficiency by not
-performing subsequent evaluations when you know it won't matter
-(because you know the variables won't change), or more rarely, when
-you don't want the regex to notice if they do.
-
-For example, here's a "paragrep" program:
+(contributed by brian d foy)
- $/ = ''; # paragraph mode
- $pat = shift;
- while (<>) {
- print if /$pat/o;
- }
+The C</o> option for regular expressions (documented in L<perlop> and
+L<perlreref>) tells Perl to compile the regular expression only once.
+This is only useful when the pattern contains a variable. Perls 5.6
+and later handle this automatically if the pattern does not change.
+
+Since the match operator C<m//>, the substitution operator C<s///>,
+and the regular expression quoting operator C<qr//> are double-quotish
+constructs, you can interpolate variables into the pattern. See the
+answer to "How can I quote a variable to use in a regex?" for more
+details.
+
+This example takes a regular expression from the argument list and
+prints the lines of input that match it:
+
+ my $pattern = shift @ARGV;
+
+ while( <> ) {
+ print if m/$pattern/;
+ }
+
+Versions of Perl prior to 5.6 would recompile the regular expression
+for each iteration, even if C<$pattern> had not changed. The C</o>
+would prevent this by telling Perl to compile the pattern the first
+time, then reuse that for subsequent iterations:
+
+ my $pattern = shift @ARGV;
+
+ while( <> ) {
+ print if m/$pattern/o; # useful for Perl < 5.6
+ }
+
+In versions 5.6 and later, Perl won't recompile the regular expression
+if the variable hasn't changed, so you probably don't need the C</o>
+option. It doesn't hurt, but it doesn't help either. If you want any
+version of Perl to compile the regular expression only once even if
+the variable changes (thus, only using its initial value), you still
+need the C</o>.
+
+You can watch Perl's regular expression engine at work to verify for
+yourself if Perl is recompiling a regular expression. The C<use re
+'debug'> pragma (comes with Perl 5.005 and later) shows the details.
+With Perls before 5.6, you should see C<re> reporting that its
+compiling the regular expression on each iteration. With Perl 5.6 or
+later, you should only see C<re> report that for the first iteration.
