Re: How to split a string based on character(s) length

[Anonymous Monk]

See the documentation of split: if you include a capture group in the regular expression, split will include the separator in its output.

$ perl -wMstrict -le 'print join ",", split /[a-z]/, "1a2b3c4"'
1,2,3,4
$ perl -wMstrict -le 'print join ",", split /([a-z])/, "1a2b3c4"'
1,a,2,b,3,c,4

Hello Anonymous Monk,

Hmmm I guess I have to read closer the split, I missed this part. Thank your time and for pointing to the correct direction.
