Re^2: Capturing occurrence counts via tr/// with variable interpolation

Running that, i get:

Can't modify bitwise xor (^) in transliteration (tr///) at /tmp/t line
+ 9, near "tr[\0][\0];"
[download]

Works fine if split into two statements or modified slightly:

my $ans = ($_=( $str ^ ( $SrchStr x length $str ) )) =~ tr[\0][\0];
[download]

Note that it works IFF length($SrchStr)==1
