Here's some code I used to parse addresses. Maybe it will help.
package AddressParser; use DBI qw(:sql_types); use DBUtil; use Utils; use Log::Log4perl qw(get_logger); use strict; use warnings; my $us_zip_re = qr/^\s*(([\w.]+\W)+)\s*([a-zA-Z]{2})\s*((\d{5})[ -]?(\ +d{4})?)(\d{2})?\s*$/; my $can_post_code_re = qr/^\s*((\w+\W)+)\s*([a-zA-Z]{2})\s+([a-zA-Z]\d +[a-zA-Z][ -]?\d[a-zA-Z]\d)\s*$/; my $foreign_canada_re = qr/^\s*((\w+\W)+)\s*([a-zA-Z]+)\s+CANADA\s+([a +-zA-Z]\d[a-zA-Z][ -]?\d[a-zA-Z]\d)\s*$/i; my $foreign_romania_re = qr/^\s*((\w+\W)+)\s*ROMANIA\s+(\d{4,}[ -]?(\d +{4})?)\s*$/i; my $foreign_france_re = qr/^\s*((\w+\W)+)\s*FRANCE\s+(\d{4,}[ -]?(\d{4 +})?)\s*$/i; my $street_re = qr/^\s*([a-zA-Z#]+\s*\d+\s+)?([a-zA-Z]?\d+[a-zA-Z]?)\s ++(\S.*)$/; my $po_box_re = qr/^\s*((\w+\W+)*\s*[bB][oO][xX])\s*(\d+)/; #--------------------------------------------------------------------- # Constructor #--------------------------------------------------------------------- sub new { my $self = { _state_table => undef }; my ($class, %arg) = @_; bless $self, $class; # $self->_init_state_table; return $self; } sub _init_state_table { my ($self) = @_; my $dbh; my $sth; my $query; my @row; my $key; my $name; $query = <<QUERY_END select abbrev, name from state QUERY_END ; $dbh = DBUtil::fetch_connection('shared'); $sth = $dbh->prepare($query); $sth->execute; while (@row = $sth->fetchrow_array) { ($key, $name) = @row; $self->{_state_table}{$key} = $name; } $sth->finish; } sub insert_zip { my ($self, $beta_address) = @_; my $zipcd; my $line; my @lines; ($zipcd, @lines) = @$beta_address; if (!defined($zipcd)) { $zipcd = ''; } $zipcd =~ s/^\s+//; $zipcd =~ s/\s+$//; for (my $i=0; $i < scalar(@lines); $i++) { if (defined($lines[$i])) { $lines[$i] =~ s/ZIPCD/$zipcd/; } } return \@lines; } sub find_address_lines { my ($self, $lines_ref) = @_; my $line; my $line_index; my $street_line_index = -1; my $zip_line_index = -1; $line_index = scalar(@$lines_ref); foreach $line (reverse(@$lines_ref)) { if (defined($line)) { # Find the street line, but only if we've already found the zip +line if (($zip_line_index > -1) && (($line =~ /$street_re/) || ($line =~ /$po_box_re/))) { $street_line_index = $line_index - 1; last; } if (($line =~ /$us_zip_re/) || ($line =~ /$can_post_code_re/) || ($line =~ /$foreign_canada_re/) || ($line =~ /$foreign_romania_re/) || ($line =~ /$foreign_france_re/)) { $zip_line_index = $line_index - 1; } } $line_index--; } if ($zip_line_index == -1) { get_logger()->error("Couldn't find zip code"); } if ($street_line_index == -1) { get_logger()->error("Couldn't find street"); } if (($zip_line_index == -1) || ($street_line_index == -1)) { get_logger()->error("\n\t" . join("\n\t", (map { defined($_) ? $_ +: '' } @$lines_ref))); return (undef, undef); } else { return (@$lines_ref[$street_line_index], @$lines_ref[$zip_line_ind +ex]); } } sub parse { my ($self, $street_line, $city_line) = @_; my $address = Address->new(); if ($street_line =~ /$street_re/) { $address->set('street_number', $2); $address->set('street_name', $3); } elsif ($street_line =~ /$po_box_re/) { $address->set('street_number', $3); $address->set('street_name', $1); } else { get_logger()->error("Couldn't parse street: $street_line"); return undef; } if ($city_line =~ /$us_zip_re/) { $address->set('city', $1); $address->set('state', $3); $address->set('zip', $4); $address->set('country', 'US'); } elsif ($city_line =~ /$can_post_code_re/) { $address->set('city', $1); $address->set('state', $3); $address->set('zip', $4); $address->set('country', 'CA'); } elsif ($city_line =~ /$foreign_canada_re/) { $address->set('city', $1); $address->set('zip', $4); $address->set('country', 'CA'); } elsif ($city_line =~ /$foreign_romania_re/) { $address->set('city', $1); $address->set('zip', $3); $address->set('country', 'RO'); } elsif ($city_line =~ /$foreign_france_re/) { $address->set('city', $1); $address->set('zip', $3); $address->set('country', 'FR'); } else { get_logger()->error("Couldn't parse city: $city_line"); return undef; } return $address; } sub parse_address { my ($self, $address_lines, $address_type) = @_; my $street_line; my $city_line; if (defined($address_type) && ($address_type eq 'BETA')) { $address_lines = $self->insert_zip($address_lines); } ($street_line, $city_line) = $self->find_address_lines($address_line +s); if (!defined($street_line) || !defined($city_line)) { return undef; } return $self->parse($street_line, $city_line); } 1;

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
