( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Let's try this again!

my $word = 'abracadabra'; my @list = qw( a b c d e ); my %list = map { $_ => 1 } @list; foreach (@list) { delete $list{$_} if $word =~ s/\Q$_//; } @list = keys %list; print("remaining word: ", $word, "\n"); # raaabra print("remaining list: ", @list, "\n"); # e
outputs
remaining word: raaabra remaining list: e

If you wish to replace all intances of the characters in @list, replace s/\Q$_// with s/\Q$_//g. The output would then be the following for the above snippet:

remaining word: rr remaining list: e

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.
