Re: Using regex to match double letters, and only double letters

in reply to Using regex to match double letters, and only double letters

Hi,

Using the above solution, you can also try the programs to find out the palindromes. For example,
print $_ if ( $_ =~ /([[:alpha:]])([[:alpha:]])([[:alpha:]])([[:alpha:]])\3\2\1/i );
This above code matches of the palindrome of length 6.

In the same way you can apply your logic to find out the palindromes.

Hope this will enhance your view in regular expressions.

Lots of things you can do with backreferences. Even check for primes: `perl -wle 'print "Prime" if (1 x shift) !~ /^1?$\|^(11+?)\1+$/'` [download] (by Abigail)	[reply] [d/l]
