in reply to (Golf!) Re^2: better way to convert a string into an array and an hash
in thread better way to convert a string into an array and an hash
I'm not a golfer, but...
tr/:/,/;%h=eval;@a=keys%h;
Update
y/:/,/;%h=eval;@a=keys%h;
Update 2
If the ordering of @a is important, how about
@a=/(\d+):/g;y/:/,/;%h=eval;
