( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Hello Monks,

I am pretty new to Perl. Kindly answer me if any of you can... :)

I have 2 questions today,

Question #1:

$check = "a"; $check++; print $check; exit;

This will give me answer as "b", but what should i do to get "d" or "e" (I mean to pass over 3 or 4 alphabets).


Question #2:

I have a string which have 2 alphabets, I need to trim it to 1 alphabet, ie, I only want the right alphabet, the left one should be trimmed out.

Example

$input= "ab"; $output = "b";

The alphabets can be any, not just "ab", it can be "cd" or "sp", In that case output should be "d" & "p" resp.

Thank you, Monks.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
