It seems that your "fuzzy" regex isn't much different from just
using dot and the length of the target. That is:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use lib '.';
use Regexp::Approx 'fuzzy_qr';
use re 'eval';
while(<DATA>) {
chomp;
print "Using '$_' as fuzzy component:\n";
my $fuzzy_part = fuzzy_qr( $_ );
my $rx = qr/((?:$fuzzy_part\s)?\w+\d)$/;
if ( "5678 DELAWARE AVENUE AOT 123" =~ $rx ) {
print "\tRX Match: $1\n";
}
my $really_fuzzy = '.{' . length($_) . '}';
my $rfx = qr/((?:$really_fuzzy\s)?\w+\d)$/;
if ( "5678 DELAWARE AVENUE AOT 123" =~ $rfx ) {
print "\tRFX Match: $1\n";
}
}
__END__
APT

^%@#!(
fuzzy matches anything?
x
# output:
Using 'APT' as fuzzy component:

Using '^%@#!(' as fuzzy component:

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).
