in reply to Iterating elements at different level

This is close to right
#!/usr/bin/env perl use Data::Dumper; use strict; use warnings; my $_aref = [[1,1],2,[1,1]]; my $_s=''.Data::Dumper->Dump([\$_aref],[qw(*_aref)]); substr($_s,0,10)=''; our ($w,$t)=(0,0); my $_re=qr{ (?: \s+ # blank space - ignore |[,] # comma - ignore |\[ # [ - increase weight (?{ local $w=$w+1; print "++w: $w\n"; }) |\] # ] - decrease weight (?{ local $w=$w-1; print "--w: $w\n"; }) |(\d+) # value - multiply by weight and add to $t (?{ print "value: $1\n"; $t+=$w*$1; print "\$t=$t\n"; } +) ) }x; if ($_s=~ m{(?{local $w=0;})^$_re*$}gms) { print "$t"; }; __END__
returns

    $t+=$w*\1;
    Should be:
    $t+=$w*$1;
    edit: I see you already figured it out and changed your post.


    The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
