Re: check if all certain chars are found in a sentence

You can build a regex that does the job:

my $map = 'abc';

my $re = '^' . join '', map "(?=.*?$_)", map quotemeta, split m//, $ma
+p;

if ('text without all three chars' =~ m/$re/) {
    print "Failure";
}

While you might call it elegant, it's probably not the most efficient way for long strings.

On the other hand, it's quite efficient if you check multiple sentences for the same letters.	[reply]
