Searching Arrays

Lhamo_rin has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Fellow Monks, How can I search an array for all elements ending with a number and return those elements into another array? For example:


@array1 = qw/antas arvan3455 cen34 melno/;
[download]

I would then want @array2 to contain:


@array2 = {arvan3455 cen34}
[download]

To extend (explain?) trammell's answer: See grep, perlre, perlop. They say that time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself. —Andy Warhol	[reply] [d/l]
