Re^2: Mathching an array in regex

Thanks for introducing me to perl -MO utility, can you direct me to the documentation on that, I don't find it in perldoc:perl -MO=Deparse test.pl.I disagree with you on the point that @arr is not expanded, the following code produces Matched as o/p (Note the $str1 value and array)

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

my @arr=('cool','guy','here');
my $str1="cool guy here";
if($str1 =~ m/@arr/){
      print "Matched";
}

Look for B::Deparse for the docs. The module is unvaluable sometimes To the @ expansion in regexes: you're right, of course. I think I just never have tried it, and so I had an 'explanation' at hand. Sorry.	[reply]
