Oh my, of course it should be...
my @repeated = grep { /some regex here/ && ++$seen{$_} > N }
@source_array;

Hi Xi,

You're looking only for 'p' letters, not D and O? Why?

Anyway, generic solution will be something like...

my %seen;
my @repeated = grep { /some regex here/ && $seen{$_} > N }
@source_array;

... where N is how many times the symbols should appear in the source
array to be counted as duplicate.
and 'some regex' is, well, some regex to filter the symbols if needed.

Yes, I agree the code looks strange. Do you have any idea to do this
with a clear code? I mean to find two same letters, "p" in @a?

Hello everyone,

I saw a code below to get two same letters "p" in @a.

@a = qw (D D p O H p A O);
foreach $b （@a）{
$n =~ /$b/i;
if($n>= 2){
$m = $b;
}
}

But I don't know what does ">=" mean. Thank you!


It means "greater than or equal to". The expression "$n >= 2" is
true
if
the value in $n is equal to 2 or is any value greater than 2, 6 for
example.
If the value in $n is less than 2 then the expression is false.

Your algorithm looks weird though because you are testing $n for the
presence of alphabetic characters (and then not using that
information)
and
then using $n in a numerical context.
