Why then did you not bother to write a few lines like:

use strict; use warnings; use Benchmark 'cmpthese'; my $string = map { ('a'..'z')[rand 26] } 1..30; my @sub_fields; cmpthese( -1, { regex1 => sub { @sub_fields = $string =~ /\w{5}/g }, regex2 => sub { @sub_fields = $string =~ /.{5}/g }, unpack => sub { @sub_fields = unpack '(A4)*', $string }, substr => sub { @sub_fields = map { substr $string, 5*$_, 5 + } 0..length( $string )/5-1 }, });

that already shows that the regex idea is vastly inferior:

Rate substr unpack regex1 regex2 substr 696486/s -- -57% -94% -94% unpack 1603093/s 130% -- -85% -86% regex1 10731041/s 1441% 569% -- -4% regex2 11165392/s 1503% 596% 4% --

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.
