Code seems to work, but it is better in PERL way as below.
use strict;
use warnings;
print "RegEx Engine 1.0\n________________\n";
print "Gimme a string: ";
my $str = <STDIN>;
print "Gimme a RegEx: ";
my $pattern = <STDIN>;
my $answer = ($str =~ /$pattern/);
if ($answer) {
print "Yes!";
} else {
print "No.";
}
print "\nkthxbye\n";
Code Change at line "my $answer = ($str =~ /$pattern/);" will look for the pattern in $pattern in the string $str and will result in yes or no.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
