Re: Converting Bracketted String (Newick's) into Array of Array

in reply to Converting Bracketted String (Newick's) into Array of Array

I'd go for something like this (untested):

# convert parens to brackets
$str =~ tr/()/[]/;

# quotes
$str =~ s/(\w+)/'$1'/g;

# eval
my $aoa;
$eval = '$aoa = ' . $str;
eval $eval;
