Re: Words, no consecutive doubled letters but repeated letters

in reply to Words, no consecutive doubled letters but repeated letters

Solving this sort of problem can be made much easier if you break it into parts. Use a simple regex to drop words containing doubled letters then you can use a simple regex to find repeated letters.

use warnings;
use strict;

my %words = map {$_ => 1} split ' ', "This will search for words with 
+doubled letters at positions";

print "$_\n" for grep {!/(\w)\1/ && /(\w).+\1/} sort keys %words;

Prints:

doubled
positions
