Re: Converting string to array?

Hello,

I am trying to write a perl script to parse a string into an array.
The string has the fields separated by tabs. So what I want to do is
read each field into a variable so I can process the data further.

See split(). It does exactly what you are asking for.

BTW: this NG has been discontinued about a decade ago and replaced by the
the comp.lang.perl.* hirarchy. If you Usenet provider still carries it
instead of the 'new' hirarchy you may wonder what else he is missing.
