Hello kaushik9918,

I am sure that fellow Monks will come up with a better solution but here is one possible way :).

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use feature 'say';

sub processString {
    my @array = split /\//, shift;
    my @slice = splice @array, 1, 7;
    return '/' . join('/', @slice);
}

my $str = "/fd/gfree/tere/frf4545/geerg/fds/0.1/fsdf/dsakdsa/";
say processString($str);

__END__

$ perl test.pl
/fd/gfree/tere/frf4545/geerg/fds/0.1

Update:

Including loop for demonstration purposes:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use feature 'say';

sub processString {
    my @array = split /\//, shift;
    my @slice = splice @array, 1, 7;
    return '/' . join('/', @slice);
}

my @array = ("/fd/gfree/tere/frf4545/geerg/fds/0.1/fsdf/dsakdsa/",
         "/fd/gfree/tere/frf4545/geerg/dfds/5.9/fdsf/fdsfd/",
         "/fd/gfree/tere/frf4545/geerg/dsad/02.44/fdsf/fdsf/");

say processString($_) for @array;

__END__

$ perl test.pl
/fd/gfree/tere/frf4545/geerg/fds/0.1
/fd/gfree/tere/frf4545/geerg/dfds/5.9
/fd/gfree/tere/frf4545/geerg/dsad/02.44

One minor question here kaushik9918. I see on your sample of output that you provide us you are having two forward slashes // is this an accident while you where typing it or it is intended to be like this?

Looking forward to your reply.

Hope this helps, BR.
