in reply to Regexp substitution on variable-length ranges with embedded code?
You can use regex to extract the data, but I'd reach for something like Set::IntSpan to handle the intervals.
Output:#!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; use Set::IntSpan; my $data = '43:1:1; 43:1:2; 43:1:3; 43:1:4; 43:1:5; 43:1:6; 27:3:7; 27 +:3:8; 27:3:9; 65:1:4; 65:1:18'; my %result; my $out = sub { my $key = (keys %result)[0] or return; print "$key:", delete $result{$key}, ';'; }; while ($data =~ /([0-9]+:[0-9]+):([0-9]+)/g) { my ($key, $value) = ($1, $2); if (exists $result{$key}) { $result{$key}->U($value); } else { $out->(); $result{$key} = 'Set::IntSpan'->new($value); } } $out->();
43:1:1-6;27:3:7-9;65:1:4,18;
map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
