in reply to Re^2: how to count the number of repeats in a string (really!)
in thread how to count the number of repeats in a string (really!)

i added a line marked with # fix as i explained, there is a bug in the code you used to rearrange: you must add the fix pos($s)=pos($s)+1-length $1; at the end of the while:;
sub oha { my $s=shift; my %saw; while($s =~ /(..+)(?=.*?\1)/g) { for my $x (0..length $1) { @saw{ map {substr $1, $x, $_} $x+2..length $1 } = (); } pos($s)=pos($s)+1-length $1; # fix } $saw{$_} =()= $s =~ /\Q$_/g for keys %saw; \%saw; }

i apologize for the bug
