perl的grep总结（Perl grep summary） Summarize the usage of Perl in grep Grep, Perl. A Grep function) Grep there are 2 ways of expression: Grep BLOCK LIST Grep EXPR, LIST BLOCK represents a code block, usually with a EXPR {}; expression is usually a regular expression. The EXPR is anything, including one or more variables, operators, functions, characters, or call functions. LIST is a list of matching. Grep BLOCK or EXPR, each element of the list, it traverses the list and temporarily set elements for $_. In list context, grep returns all the elements, the result is a list of hits. In scalar context, grep returns the number of elements, hit. (two) Grep vs. loops Open FILE myfile or die Cant open myfile:!; Print grep /terrorism|nuclear/i, FILE;; Here to open a myfile file, and then find that contains terrorism or nuclear line. FILE; return a list, which contains the complete contents of the file. You may have found that if the file is large, this is because the cost of memory, all content files are copied to the memory. Instead of the way is to use the loop (cycle) to complete: While ($line = FILE; {) If ($line = ~ /terrorism|nuclear/i) {print $line} } The code shows that loop can do anything grep can do. Why do you use grep? The answer is grep more Perl style, C style and loop. A better explanation is: (1) grep let the reader know clearly, you choose an element from the list; (2) grep than loop simple. A bit of advice: if you are new to Perl, the rules of using loop is better; so you are familiar with Perl, you can use this powerful tool grep. (three) several examples of grep 1., the number of elements in the list of statistical expressions $num_apple = grep /^apple$/i, @fruits; In scalar context, grep returns the number of matching elements in the list; in the context of grep, a list of elements in the return match. So, the number of the code return Apple words exist in the @fruits array. Because $num_apple is a scalar, it results in scalar context forced grep. 2. from t
