$T = qr//;
$U = qr//;
$_ = "12";
/(1)(2)/;
my ($t, $u) = ($1, $2);
print "t: $t\tu: $u\n";
print 'before $t gets reassigned: '
. ( ( $t =~ $T ) ? 'pass' : 'fail' ) . "\n";
$t="12";
print 'after $t gets reassigned: '
. ( ( $t =~ $T ) ? 'pass' : 'fail' ) . "\n";
print '$u never gets reassigned: '
. ( ( $u =~ $U ) ? 'pass' : 'fail' ) . "\n";
my $foo = 'bar';
print '$foo never got assigned a $1 or $2 or regex matched: '
. ( ( $foo =~ $T ) ? 'pass' : 'fail' ) . "\n";
$foo =~ /b/;
print '$foo got matched against /b/: '
. ( ( $foo =~ $U ) ? 'pass' : 'fail' ) . "\n"
This little mess produces:
t: 1 u: 2
before $t gets reassigned: fail
after $t gets reassigned: pass
$u never gets reassigned: fail
$foo never got assigned a $1 or $2 or regex matched: fail
$foo got matched against /b/: pass

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
