should that be "(?{ code })" instead of "(??{ code })" ?	[reply]

Nope. "(??{ code })" is used so the regex fails and backtracks. It's the backtracking that finds every answer.	[reply]

perlre says: `This is a "postponed" regular subexpression. It behaves in exactly the + same way as a (?{ code }) code block as described above, except that + its return value, rather than being assigned to $^R , is treated as +a pattern, compiled if it's a string (or used as-is if its a qr// obj +ect), then matched as if it were inserted instead of this construct.` [download] so what is treated as a pattern here? is it what "print $1" returns?
