use Interpolation '%:$$->$' => sub {sprintf '%'.$_[0], $_[1]}; my $x = 41.758; my $name = "Jenda"; print "Hello $%{'06d'}{$x} or $%{' 10.5f'}{$x}, $%{'20s'}{$name}, and +so forth\n"; $x = 1.7; $name = "Leaveolus"; print "Hello $%{'06d'}{$x} or $%{' 10.5f'}{$x}, $%{'20s'}{$name}, and +so forth\n";

The need for the singlequotes inside the curlies makes it a little less nice, but I do not see a way around that. OTOH, you can add your own formats by modifying the subroutine in that use statement. Or you can define different interpolations if you like:

use Interpolation 'S' => sub { local $_ = sprintf("%.2f", shift()); 1 while s/^(-?\d+)(\d{3})/$1,$2/; '$'.$_; }; #... print "And the total price is $S{$Price}.\n";

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.
