As an example, peter, this works, and shows that my data is being split on
the right fields:
while (my $line = <$gh>) {
my @s = split / /, $line;
{ local $" = ':';
print "@s\n";
}
print STDOUT @s;
}
# sample output:
Venus:::22h:51m:18s:::-7::46.9':::0.691:::10.142:::72.919:::Up
Venus22h51m18s-746.9'0.69110.14272.919Up
Pluto:::18h:6m:40s:::-17::44.9':::32.485:::-52.833:::108.052:::Set
Pluto18h6m40s-1744.9'32.485-52.833108.052Set
So now I want to take the second element of s and hit it with
s2 = s/h/ /;
, but I can't figure out how to deal with these perl arrays like I'm
accustomed to with C or fortran. I make progress, but I never seem to
mature with how perl control structures interact with arrays.
As a work-around, I made explicit variables in the split:
my $filename = 'eph6.txt';
my $filename2 = 'outfile1.txt';
open(my $fh, '<', $filename) or die "cannot open $filename: $!";
open(my $gh, $filename2) or die "cannot open $filename2: $!";
while (my $line = <$fh>) {
$line =~ s/\t/ /g;
$line =~ s/ER/ /g;
$line =~ s/°/ /g;
print $gh $line;
print STDOUT $line;
}
close($fh);
seek($gh,0,0);
while (my $line = <$gh>) {
my ($s1,$s2,$s3,$s4,$s5,$s6,
$s7,$s8,$s9,$s10) = split / /, $line;
print "s2 is $s2\n";
}
close($gh);
# perl reg7.pl
Now I get nothing:

I read this in a footnote while my pastor was giving the sermon today.
From her perspective, she can't know whether I'm reading the camel book or
the bible.
Bottom of page 35, the asterisk reads "A good source of information on
regular expressions is Jeffrey Friedl's book, _Mastering Regular
Expressions_ (O'Reilly and Associates).
What version would I want and how much should I expect to pay for a used
one? I bought a Harbison and Steele from someone off the net, and the
s.o.b. sends me a 1985 version, older than K&R 1. I was so disgusted that
I quit C for a year.

Amazon and B&N both have used books or sale (and I'm sure other sites,
too). Just compare that to the current edition out and see what one's
you can grab, if you want a used one.

What's New
New in the Third Edition are a new chapter on PHP (and upgraded PHP
coverage throughout the core chapters), and a completely rewritten Java
chapter to reflect changes from Java 1.4.0 to Java 1.5/1.6. Otherwise,
there are only minor updates and typo fixes. (For example, if your interest
is Perl or .NET, there's little new in the Third Edition that's not in the
Second Edition.)
Amazon sells the new one for 29.69 while used ones begin at $25.-. Unless
someone has edition 2 for twenty bucks, I think this is a buy.

Right, the newest might not be relevant to your needs. I wouldn't know
the differences in them, my copy is very old and I really never needed
to reference it (regex's come naturally to me -- unless I make a stupid
typo in response to a usenet post from not paying attention).

CC,
I'd be interested in what you have after you make changes. I'm chipping
away at my own perl projects, so I've got plenty on my plate, but I'd like
to run and keep the final product. You've got some serious criticisms, ie,
seriously good suggestions, to deal with yet.
The directory erased is E:\05-09-07\Cal Poly , right?

Chip Salzenberg sent me a complete patch to add System V IPC (msg, sem and
shm calls), so I added them. If that bothers you, you can always undefine
them in config.sh. :-) -- Larry Wall in <9384@jpl-devvax.JPL.NASA.GOV>

His code shows he opens that directory (mentioned above) and then checks
(and deletes) directories _within_ it that are over X days old.

Larry, Tim is correct...
I used my E: drive for testing. For the most part, it is my first stage
backup device. The directory "05-09-07" is a folder of data. In that folder
are a lot of other folders, including one named "Cal Poly". The "Cal Poly"
folder used to have one heck of a lot of other nested folders and files.
(Notice the phrase, "used to have.") The Cal Poly folder still exists with
only a few files, but no folders.
You are right about the "serious criticisms" being "seriously good
suggestions." I've been poping in and out of here for about 10 years and
found that the majority of contributors are fantastic! I don't always do
100% of what's recommended (even if I agree with it), but too many of the
suggestions are just too good to ignore.

Xah,
Very nice!
If nothing else you seem to be a pretty clever programmer.
Indeed, you seem to understand more theoretical aspects than
most simple minded software developers.
I am not sure why you live out of your car?
Has that situation changed at all? Are you working right now?

Please don't encourage this guy. He posts to groups purely to try and
tell everyone how smart he thinks he is (regardless of how wrong he
usually is), and argues and uses vulgar language to anyone that asks
him to stop posting in non relevent news groups. He seems to have
selected the Python and Perl groups to regularly post to, even when his
posts rarely to never have any relation to said groups. Please, do not
encourage his behavior. Thanks.
