Another way without using substr (which is actually seldom used in Perl) is to use split, like a simple CSV file would be parsed, except with 'x' instead of ','.

#!usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use Data::Dumper; while (my $line =<DATA>) { chomp $line; print "line = $line\n"; my $tokens =(my $first, my @rest)= split 'x',$line,-1; print "num tokens is: $tokens\n"; print Dumper $first, \@rest; print "\n"; } =prints line = 1212123x534534534534xx4545454x232322xx num tokens is: 7 $VAR1 = '1212123'; $VAR2 = [ '534534534534', '', '4545454', '232322', '', '' ]; line = 0901001x876879878787xx0909918x212245xx num tokens is: 7 $VAR1 = '0901001'; $VAR2 = [ '876879878787', '', '0909918', '212245', '', '' ]; line = 1212123x534534534534xx4545454x232323xx num tokens is: 7 $VAR1 = '1212123'; $VAR2 = [ '534534534534', '', '4545454', '232323', '', '' ]; line = 1212133x534534534534xx4549454x232322xx num tokens is: 7 $VAR1 = '1212133'; $VAR2 = [ '534534534534', '', '4549454', '232322', '', '' ]; line = 4352342xx23232xxx345545x45454x23232xxx num tokens is: 11 $VAR1 = '4352342'; $VAR2 = [ '', '23232', '', '', '345545', '45454', '23232', '', '', '' ]; =cut __DATA__ 1212123x534534534534xx4545454x232322xx 0901001x876879878787xx0909918x212245xx 1212123x534534534534xx4545454x232323xx 1212133x534534534534xx4549454x232322xx 4352342xx23232xxx345545x45454x23232xxx

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.
