in thread Selective substitution: not in Perl?
Black magic! I'm really impressed, I didn' know you
can put that all into the substitution pattern.
/me bows to Nuance ...
As for my solution, I was focused on the sample input given, I didn't think of the more general problem. But you're right about this.
As for your script, it works with a small alteration:
If you increment $i in a seperate statement, the whole block evaluates to the value of $i und you get$string =~ s/($pattern)/$i++ == $n ? $better : $1/ge;
Ok, now we're having fun :-)...abacab 0b1c2b
