Hi
Lemming,
Im a little confused. As posted your code goes into an infinte loop. When I s/$file/\$string/g I get the output as you said we would (impressive) However if minlen is 0 it goes into an infinite loop!
Also when I try the string:'hellohiothellobrakerakerashash' I only get one of the many words contained, and a couple that arent words.
2 : (hello)
2 : (aker)
2 : (ash)
I would expect any of the following:
hello,hi,othello,brake,rake,raker,rash,ash,hash,ohio,
the,lob,bra,hell,era
# I get this using substr counts:
ak,ake,aker,akera,as,ash,el,ell,ello,er,era,
he,hel,hell,hello,ke,ker,kera,ll,llo,lo,
ra,rak,rake,raker,rakera,sh
So my guess is that the above results are coincidental or am I missing something?
Yves

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).
