in reply to Retrieving Regex matched Group name

Without knowing what you are trying to match, I'm just guessing, but my guess is that you want your regex to be something like this:

#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use feature 'say';

my $string = "<Word>Cat<Digit>1 blah blab blah <Word>Dog<Digit>0";

while ( $string =~ m/<Word>(\w+)<Digit>(\d+)/g ) {
    say "Matched Word: $1";
    say "Matched Digit: $2";
}

__END__
Matched Word: Cat
Matched Digit: 1
Matched Word: Dog
Matched Digit: 0
