Likely, but not certain.

I see the top 10 entries are all written in Perl. I suppose this
says something.
About the capabilities of Perl for writing such code, or about the
drinking habits of Perl programmers? :-)

Dear Group,
I was looking to split a string in a particular interval, like,
If I have a string,
string=The Sun rises in the east of our earth
I like to see it as,
words=[The Sun,rises in,in the,east of,our earth]
If any one of the learned members can kindly suggest.
