Works in 5.005
but who's still using 5.0 these days?
<sheepishly>
Me. Some companies haven't upgraded....

use strict;
print 'Perl version is: ', $];
my @foo = qw/ fee fie fo fum big bag boz /;
foreach ( @foo ) {
if ( $_ !~ /f/ ) { print "Matched: $_ !~ /f/ " ; }
else { print "Failed: $_ !~ /f/ " ; }
}
Output:
Perl version is: 5.00503
Failed: fee !~ /f/
Failed: fie !~ /f/
Failed: fo !~ /f/
Failed: fum !~ /f/
Matched: big !~ /f/
Matched: bag !~ /f/
Matched: boz !~ /f/

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
