Hi PerlMonks:

I need to fetch the value next to 'speed' in the following string. 'speed basic-2.0 5.5 basic-11.0'.

I used a regular expression "speed \\w+\" which captured only the string "speed".

--------------------UPDATE---------------------------------------
I need a regular expression which prints everything after the word speed as one string.

my $string = "speed basic-2.0 5.5 basic-11.0"
# I require a reg ex which can get me 
# my $required = "basic-2.0 5.5 basic-11.0"

-----------------END OF UPDATE------------------------------------
Any suggestions provided by you is much appreciated!

Since many people mis interpreted my question and posted answers in a different context I updated the original content.
Thanks for letting me know the guidelines. Now I added my original post content.
