Dear Monks

Problem: Im trying to pre-compile a couple of patterns (Regular expression) and match it into the given text.

Done so far: I have tried doing this without pre-compiled regex, which work perfectly 

$text="I have a problem with pre-compiled regex";
@words=qw(have regex);
for $a(@words)
{
    while ($text =~ m/$a/g)
    {
        print "Found $&\n";
    }
}

Stuck with: Now when I wanted to pre-compile these patterns (have, regex) and match with $text, I don't get the expected result. I have posted the script which doesn't work, below. 

$text="I have a problem with pre-compiled regex";
@words=qw(qr/have/ qr/regex/);
for $a(@words)
{
    while ($text =~ /$a/g)
    {
        print "Found $&\n";
    }
}
