Re^3: [Class Assignment] Regex and Output Files

I used your most recent code with this input.txt file:

Out with the old, in with the new.
Old stuff is cool.  New stuff is also cool.
Now to mess with your head:  Fortune favors the bold.  I knew it.

It produced the following output.txt file:

Out with the old, in with the old.
Old stuff is cool.  old stuff is also cool.
Now to mess with your head:  Fortune favors the bold.  I kold it.

Do you see the problem(s) yet?

Hint:It is a useful skill to be able to fabricate good test data.

I do see the problem, I adjusted my regex to fix this `=~ s/\bnew\b/old/ig;`. I was having problems with the output before, It's working fine now. Thank you for bringing this to my attention!	[reply] [d/l]
