( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

It seems ungood that there's no CPAN module for Pig Latin, at least none that I could find... so I shamelessly munged Lingua::Bork and this thread.

package Lingua::PigLatin; use strict; use warnings; require Exporter; use vars qw(@ISA %EXPORT_TAGS @EXPORT_OK $VERSION); @ISA = qw(Exporter); %EXPORT_TAGS = ( 'all' => [ 'piglatin' ] ); @EXPORT_OK = ( @{ $EXPORT_TAGS{'all'} } ); $VERSION = '0.01'; sub new { my $class = shift; bless {}, ref($class)||$class; } sub piglatin { local $_ = shift; local $_ = shift if ref($_); s/\b(qu|[cgpstw]h # First syllable, including digraphs |[^\W0-9_aeiou]) # Unless it begins with a vowel or number ?([a-z]+)/ # Store the rest of the word in a variable $1?"$2$1ay" # move the first syllable and add -ay :"$2way" # unless it should get -way instead /iegx; return $_; } 1; __END__ =head1 NAME Lingua::PigLatin - Perl extension for Pig Latin =head1 SYNOPSIS use Lingua::PigLatin 'piglatin'; print piglatin("Put the candle back.") =head1 DESCRIPTION igpay atinlay. =head1 EXPORT None by default. Can export piglatin function for convenience. =head1 AUTHOR Jack Coates, E<lt>jack@monkeynoodle.orgE<gt> =head1 SEE ALSO http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=3586 =head1 KNOWN PROBLEMS Contractions. This man page is not in Pig Latin. =cut

I haven't uploaded it to CPAN yet, I think I'll mess around with it a little first. Maybe some tests...

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).
