The /i modifier will make the match case insensitive. The /g modifier allows for global matching. The match operator supports its own set of modifiers. For example, when extracting the hours, minutes, and seconds from a time string, we can use − In a list context, the match returns the contents of any grouped expressions. Will set $true to 1 if $foo matches the regex, or 0 if the match fails. Note that the entire match expression, that is the expression on the left of =~ or !~ and the match operator, returns true (in a scalar context) if the expression matches. You can omit m from m// if the delimiters are forward slashes, but for all other delimiters you must use the m prefix. So above example can be re-written as follows − For example, m, m(), and m>< are all valid. The m// actually works in the same fashion as the q// operator series.you can use any combination of naturally matching characters to act as delimiters for the expression. When above program is executed, it produces the following result −

For example, to match the character sequence 'foo' against the scalar $bar, you might use a statement like this −

The match operator, m//, is used to match a string or statement to a regular expression. If you are comfortable with any other delimiter, then you can use in place of forward slash. The forward slashes in each case act as delimiters for the regular expression (regex) that you are specifying. Transliterate Regular Expression - tr///.There are three regular expression operators within Perl. The first operator is a test and assignment operator. The basic method for applying a regular expression is to use the pattern binding operators =~ and !~. The syntax of regular expressions in Perl is very similar to what you will find within other regular expression.supporting programs, such as sed, grep, and awk.

Table.insert (t, 'jumped') - add to end of table Table.insert (t, 2, 'very') - new element 2 If called with 2 arguments, the value is inserted at n+1, that is, the end of the table. Thus the new element becomes the one with index 'pos'.

Inserts the value at (optional) position 'pos', renumbering existing elements if necessary to make room. Inserts a new item into a numerically-keyed table
