Re: Split string in groups with non white space using regex

"...I am not really good with regex..."

#MeToo - but didn't you miss a group:

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use feature qw(say);

my $string = q'Thanos1983+|Thanos1983+|Thanos1983+';

$string =~ m/(.+)\|(.+)\|(.+)/;

say for ($1,$2,$3);

__END__

Untested. And i hope i didn't miss the point.

Hello karlgoethebier, To be honest I was just about to post another possible solution: `#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use feature 'say'; my @tests = ('Thanos1983+\|Thanos1983+', 'Thanos1983+\| ', 'Thanos1983+\|'); for (@tests) { say "I found:\t\$1: '$1'\t\$2: '$2'\t\$3: '$3'" if /(.)(\\|)(.)/; } __END__ $ perl test.pl I found: $1: 'Thanos1983+' $2: '\|' $3: 'Thanos1983+' I found: $1: 'Thanos1983+' $2: '\|' $3: ' ' I found: $1: 'Thanos1983+' $2: '\|' $3: ''` [download] Thanks for the tip of using `m/(.+)(\\|)(.+)/` this is also works for the first two cases but not for the third. Sample of code: `#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use feature 'say'; my @tests = ('Thanos1983+\|Thanos1983+', 'Thanos1983+\| ', 'Thanos1983+\|'); for (@tests) { say "I found:\t\$1: '$1'\t\$2: '$2'\t\$3: '$3'" if /(.+)(\\|)(.+)/; } __END__ $ perl test.pl I found: $1: 'Thanos1983+' $2: '\|' $3: 'Thanos1983+' I found: $1: 'Thanos1983+' $2: '\|' $3: ' '` [download] Thank you for your time and effort.
