Hi,
Please no homework questions to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] list,
hard graft teaches you more effectively. At least make sure
you understand entirely whatever solution you submit...
while (<FILE>) {
if (/^(\d+)\s+([^<]+) <([^>]+)>$/) {
my ($id, $name, $email) = ($1, $2, $3);
# Process line
}
else {
die "Parse error at line $.\n";
}
}
I think you've got some studying to do :)
