in reply to Providing regex using an array
This might look ok in your editor, but your tab-length is 8 while we use 4 here.
It's hard to tell what you are trying to achieve, my best guess is to check that all regexes in an array individually match.
the following debugger-demo is using the fact that grep returns a count in scalar context
> perl -de0 DB<134> @patterns = ("^abd", "ghi"); DB<135> $string = "abd__ghi__" DB<136> p @patterns == grep { $string =~ $_ } @patterns 1 DB<137> DB<137> $string = "abd__xhi__" DB<138> p @patterns == grep { $string =~ $_ } @patterns DB<139>
even easier if you use all from List::Util
DB<139> use List::Util qw/all/ DB<140> $string = "abd__ghi__" DB<141> p all { $string =~ $_ } @patterns 1 DB<142>
