Re: [unknownSym] Phone Number Input Fix Golf

 Uh oh. Houston, we have a problem.
Given input with non-digit characters in between digit groups, it doesn't function properly:
111-222-4444 becomes:
111-222-4444
Becuase that \D* is matching "0 or more characters that are not-digits" So when it reaches the first digit, it has satisfied the match.
Solution: Take away the * and add the repitition modifier:
s/\D//g;s/(\d{3})(\d{3})/($1) $2-/;print;
Voila! But the credit still goes to Sym
