( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
I'm just learning Perl, but have had to deal with regexps in PHP. One thing I can definitely recommend is the Regex Coach. Once they start learning the rules for regular expressions, they'll want to test it out, and the Coach gives them something fun to work with. It also allows them to save their regex work to text files for sharing, discussion, etc.

I'm a teacher by profession, and I know that learning for many adults can seem like a chore if they don't have something practical to work with. This software made it much easier for me to work through some of the WORST (for me, at least) regular expressions problems.

Best of luck!

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.
