I couldn't resist sharing this. No disrespect to the other posters but I learned this trick from James Gray recently and think it's a really good trick. This works since you can use a regexp in brackets to index a string. You could also use: a[/(\d+)\sto\s(\d+)\sof\s(\d+)/, 1] or a[/(\d+)\sto\s(\d+)\sof\s(\d+)/, 2] ...to get the other numbers.
