in reply to Simple regexp question

Hi droog114, Try this,

TIMTOWTDI

use strict; use warnings; open(FILE, shift) || die($!); while(<FILE>){ my $hah = $_ =~ s/\#/$&/g; my $ast = $_ =~ s/\*/$&/g; print '*' x 70, "\nLine No. $.\n",'*' x 70, "\n"; $hah = 0 if (!($hah)); $ast = 0 if (!($ast)); print "Number of #'s\t$hah\n"; print "Number of *'s\t$ast\n"; } close(FILE);

    TIMTOWTDI
    I'd change my $ast = $_ =~ s/\*/$&/g; to my $ast = tr/*//;, and do similarly for the $hah variable. Or, leaving the default variable intact, my $ast = tr/*/*/;. To each their own.

    Of course, the code doesn't "filter out lines with *'s and #'s" -- it prints a line of asterisks with the line number, and then prints the number of asterisks and number of hashes. I take it you simply intended to give the OP some code to work on without giving everything, while pointing out the question should have indicated some effort on his part.
