Becky has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Is there a way of printing a specified number of characters? For example if I want to print 14 spaces followed by an 'A' ?

Extending this, could I do something like:

<code> $number = 5;
$number_two = 7;

print "$number(spaces) A $number_two(spaces) B \n";
