Hello people, Im pretty new to perl, just learning right now. I'm looking to replace some cells in a verilog file using the verilog-perl module. My question is this: The verilog perl module has a function called "->dump_drivers". So basically when I do: 
$netdrivers = ($pin->net)->dump_drivers;

The output I see on the screen is: 
Net:in2
  Port: in2  in
  Pin:  U1.IN2  in
  Pin:  U2.IN2  in

[download]
What I am trying to so is this : 
$netdrivers = ($pin->net)->dump_drivers;
           
my @netdrivers_split = split(/\n/,$netdrivers);
         
foreach my $val (@netdrivers_split) {
          #some code
}

[download]
What I want it to do is save 
Net:in2
  Port: in2  in
  Pin:  U1.IN2  in
  Pin:  U2.IN2  in

[download]
Then split it into an array using the newline delimiter so I can use the individual values. But when I do 
$netdrivers = ($pin->net)->dump_drivers;
my @netdrivers_split = split(/\n/,$netdrivers);        
print @netdrivers_split;

[download]
I get: 
Net:in2
  Port: in2  in
  Pin:  U1.IN2  in
  Pin:  U2.IN2  in
0 but true

[download]
Why is the value in "@netdrivers_split" "0 but true"? Is this the right way to do it?
