You may want something like this?

use warnings;

my $string = "Hello World";
while($string =~/./g){
    print "$&\n";
}

Or,

use strict;
use warnings;

my $string = "Hello World";
my @string = split(//,$string);
for my $str (@string){
    print "$str\n";
}

According to perldoc perldata (paragraph for $MATCH) I would avoid the use of "`$&`"; I would capture the pattern and use "`$1`" instead. `use strict; use warnings; my $string = "Hello World"; while($string =~/(.)/g){ print "$1\n"; }` [download] But usually I prefer the split() solution.
