Hello, I am beginer in this field. I need help. I tried to write pattern for the range numbers between 1 to 10 . My code looks like this: 
#!/usr/bin/perl
#$x=11;
#$x=0;
$x=2;
#pattern for range from 1 to 10;
if ($x=~ m/[1-9]|10/)
{
    print "Correct match";
}
else 
{
    print "incorrect";
}

If I assign variable $x=11 it still show me that I have correct match. Any kind of help I will realy appreciate. Vana
