Actually, we don't mind helping with homework. We just don't like doing it for you. Suggestion: pick one of these assignments, show us your best serious attempt to solve it, and you'll get help.

And if you paste in code (highly recommended for best response), be sure to surround it with <code> . . . </code> tags so that your nice formatting is not lost.

Two of these problems are solved (exactly) in one line of code in jeffrey friedl's Mastering Regular Expressions.

Well, at least you remembered not to type the class number and professor's name at the top.

This really smells like homework to me :-(

The answers to these questions can be found in Mastering Regular Expressions mostly.

Thanks for the suggestions. Actually this isn't homework for a class. I have started to try to learn perl via a tutorial. These are some of the programs listed to try. They don't give any answers to them so I was looking for some examples from people who know what they are doing to get myself started.

Actually this isn't homework for a class.

I know this is two years after the fact. Just the same, I thought someone should set the record straight – if for no other reason, then because jeffa has linked to the OP has an example of homework in his oft cited How (Not) To Ask A Question tutorial.

So I did a quick search. I just googled for the fourth question. Imagine my surprise when I found that Google returned exactly two links.

The first was a link to the archived OP at thepen, blakem's Perl Monks archive.

The second was http://home.earthlink.net/~greenblanket/cs551-gradedperl.htm.

You be the judge. ;-)
