Nice but I did want to bust all the date values out to separate elements of the @res array. Your non capturing braces though give me the clue I think to fix it properly, but I still can't quite get it:

@res = $_ =~/(\d{4}-\d\d-\d\d).*dates processed: ((:?\d{4}-\d\d-\d\d,? + ?)*)/ # still captures last result twice # input # 2009-02-02 06:12:57,500 dates processed: 2009-01-31, 2009-01-29, 200 +9-01-30 # output # 2009-02-02, 2009-01-31, 2009-01-29, 2009-01-30, 2009-01-30

Update

Oeps, I am not splitting them with the above either, fooled myself because my debug testing printed the list out with a join ", ", doh!

Cheers,
R.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

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.
