moritz:
Really gotta go now, but just one more experiment: without recursion (actually, along the lines LanX has already posted).
>perl -wMstrict -le
"$_ = 'x77x888x1x';
;;
'zonk' =~ m{(\w+)}xms;
;;
print 'before: $1 is ', defined($1) ? qq{'$1'} : 'undefined';
print X1();
print 'after: $1 is ', defined($1) ? qq{'$1'} : 'undefined';
;;
sub X1 { s/(\d+)//; print qq{ '$1'}; return $1 + X2(); }
sub X2 { s/(\d+)//; print qq{ '$1'}; return $1 + X3(); }
sub X3 { s/(\d+)//; print qq{ '$1'}; return $1; }
"
before: $1 is 'zonk'
'77'
'888'
'1'
966
after: $1 is 'zonk'
Without recursion, value of $1 seems to be scoped to the subroutine 'block'.
No difference in results for Xn() + $1 versus $1 + Xn() or for $1 being undefined initially.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
