For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))
grep

hi every one,

in the code am writing i have to check a file ids that are in an array.
my code is:

@accession_id = grep/\@array/ , topo_ids.srs;

it showed no error. but can't get the @accession_id printed.


@arrays contain list of ids that i have to look for in topo_ids.srs. Should I have to add 'g' to make that global

If you want to match all the elements in a list via a regular expression, you need to make up an appropriate regulare expression.  Hard to explain so I'll give you an example:

Code:
@indeed = ("cat","dog","bunny");
@source = (
  "We have a cat\n",
  "My son has cows in his garden\n",
  "My daughter had a hamster\n",
  "Hugh has a bunny at his place\n");
# Make up the regular expression to look for
$filter = join('|',@indeed);
@matched = grep(/$filter/,@source);
print @matched;


Which runs:
Code:
earth-wind-and-fire:~/jun07/ox grahamellis$ perl hte
We have a cat
Hugh has a bunny at his place
earth-wind-and-fire:~/jun07/ox
