Re: grep for lines containg two variables

  @interesting_lines = grep {/$string1/ xor /$string2/} @log;

will do nicely.

Hope this helps, -gjb-

Update: apparently I got the question wrong, see the previous answer or for an alternative syntax:

  @interesting_lines = grep {/$string1/ and /$string2/} @log;

When the OP said I know the syntax for "or" (code example) but not "and" I think he meant I know the syntax for "or" (code example) but I don't know the syntax for "and" rather than I don't know the syntax for "or but not and"	[reply]

I'm glad someone else made this mistake, It must be something about how the question is worded because this is also what I thought the OP was after. It's completely wrong though. ikegami got it right. ++ for effort anyway :) --- my name's not Keith, and I'm not reasonable.	[reply]
