On the assumption that every $cn will match at most one $bn (or that you don't care about more than the first), you could precompile a regex and use the result of the match:

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; my @CS_CHECKS = ( '00012345', 'D123470', '0000123450', '0000023456', ' +50000123990' ); my @B_CHECKS = ( '1234', '12345', '123990', '12399' ); my $re = do { my $x = join '|', map "\Q$_", @B_CHECKS; qr/^[056]0+($x) +$/ }; $_ =~ $re and print "$1 = $_\n" for @CS_CHECKS;

Of course, the regex engine is still run through the alternatives (up until one matches), but at least it looks more elegant. :)

(Oh, and it may be faster too, what with not having to recompile the regex again and again. But don't quote me on that.)

The Sidhekin proves Sidhe did it!

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
