Re^2: String concatenation issues with 00?

Hi James, thanks for that. It would seem that, in my attempt at redacting some of the data used (manually, rather than doing it properly and doing up some real test data), I accidentally fixed my issue.

Now to go back over my real code and see what's different between that and what I posted here... I actually spent quite a bit of time trying different options with the concatenation, chomp, etc. and just couldn't get it right. Seems all I needed to do was give up ;)

Heres another way to do it, which seems more legible: `use strict; use warnings; while (<DATA>){ chomp; my @line = split /:/; print "$line[0]:$line[1]00:$line[2]:$line[3]:$line[4]00\n"; } __DATA__ o:200806050852:b7199767:b24211012077030:200902232359 o:201103251457:b6235734:b2421100997663:201204022359 o:201403101021:b8015840:b24211013181843:201404072359 o:201407291225:b8759124:b24211001018862:201408262359` [download] Output: `o:20080605085200:b7199767:b24211012077030:20090223235900 o:20110325145700:b6235734:b2421100997663:20120402235900 o:20140310102100:b8015840:b24211013181843:20140407235900 o:20140729122500:b8759124:b24211001018862:20140826235900` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

seems

use strict;
use warnings;

while (<DATA>){
    chomp;
    my @line = split /:/;
    print "$line[0]:$line[1]00:$line[2]:$line[3]:$line[4]00\n";
}
