Re: If/else within a foreach loop to check strings within an array

It is possible to have more than non-standard nucleotide in your sequence? If so, you might consider looking for all the non-matches:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;

my $dna_input = shift;

my @dna = split( '', $dna_input );
my (@index) = grep { $dna[$_] !~ /[ATCG]/ } 0..$#dna;
print "Non-nucleotide at position $_\n" for @index;
