Multiple matching	Can't Post

Hi!
i have

Code

my($digits) = "0123456789";

What regex could I use to receive array of digits like
$array[0] == 0
.
.
.
$array[9] == 9

Thank you.

I think this is what you are after:

Code

my($digits) = "0123456789"; 
my @array = split(//,$digits);

using split() with no argument in the regexp splits the string on each character.

Nop, it was not question about split syntax.
It's about Regexp and it was simple situation...
Really i have more complex task.
I have

Code

my $str = "melco@yandex.ru,(fred,barney,tom)@domain.com,juice@some.co.uk,..........,(email_N,email_N_plus_1)@domain2.com,somemail_N_plus_2@something.net"

I need to split it to:

Code

$a[0] = "melco@yandex.ru" 
$a[1] = "(fred,barney,tom)@domain.com" 
$a[2] = "juice@some.co.uk" 
..... 
$a[$n] = "(email_N,email_N_plus_1)@domain2.com" 
$a[$n+1] = "somemail_N_plus_2@something.net"

This is my real task.
Sorry for my wrong first question Crazy

Thank you all! Wink

You can use g to match more then once and an array to capture the results:

Code

my @res = $str =~ /regexp/g;

Hardest thing would be to make that regexp because emailaddresses can take many forms and I don't know if you can use Regexp::Common::Email::Adress because of the (name,name,name)@domain.com

A good source for more info about creating regular expressions is perlreref
