r.joseph has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Suppose the string:
r. j o s e p h
"Violence is a last resort of the incompetent" - Salvor Hardin, Foundation by Issac Asimov
and I want to split every 3 digits to get an array that contains 059, 057, 034, .... Shouldn't this:$a = '059057034037063107105003046039039036107063035046';
Work just fine? For some reason, it defintely doesn't! I can't figure why...Thanks for the help!my @nums = split(/(\d{3})/,$a);
r. j o s e p h
