perl 中substr应用详解

 #!/usr/bin/perl


#-----------------------------

#substr用来存取子串，可以修改子串，主要用法如下：

#$value = substr($string, $offset, $count);

#$value = substr($string, $offset);


#substr($string, $offset, $count) = $newstring;

#substr($string, $offset) = $newtail;

#-----------------------------

# 首先得到一个5个字符的字符串，然后跳过三个字符，分别得到2个8字符的字符串，最后剩下的给$trailing

#unpack/pack的用法以后会讲到，或者参见google 一下 ‘perl函数 unpack’

($leading, $s1, $s2, $trailing) =
    unpack("A5 x3 A8 A8 A*", $data);

# 将字符串分成每5个字符一个串，存入数组@fives

@fivers = unpack("A5" x (length($string)/5), $string);

# 将字符串打散成单个字符，存入数组@chars

@chars = unpack("A1" x length($string), $string);
#-----------------------------

$string = "This is what you have";
# +012345678901234567890 Indexing forwards (left to right)

# 109876543210987654321- Indexing backwards (right to left)

# note that 0 means 10 or 20, etc. above

#下面是一些例子：

$first = substr($string, 0, 1); # "T"

$start = substr($string, 5, 2); # "is"

$rest = substr($string, 13); # "you have"

$last = substr($string, -1); # "e"

$end = substr($string, -4); # "have"

$piece = substr($string, -8, 3); # "you"

#-----------------------------

$string = "This is what you have";
print $string;
#This is what you have


substr($string, 5, 2) = "wasn't"; # 改变 "is" 为 "wasn't"

#This wasn't what you have


substr($string, -12) = "ondrous";# 替换最后12个字符

#This wasn't wondrous


substr($string, 0, 1) = ""; # 删除首字符

#his wasn't wondrous


substr($string, -10) = ""; # 删除最后10个字符

#his wasn'

#-----------------------------

# 你可以用 =~ 来测试子串，=~为正则表达式匹配运算符，后面会讲到，还可以google Perl 正则表达式

#主要是匹配则为True；否则为False。 pattern可以自己根据需要构造。

if (substr($string, -10) =~ /pattern/) {
    print "Pattern matches in last 10 characters/n";
}

# 将 "is" 换为 "at", 限制在最后五个字符；=~ s/// 为替换表达式。

substr($string, 0, 5) =~ s/is/at/g;
#-----------------------------

# 将字符串$a的第一个和最后一个字符交换

$a = "make a hat";
(substr($a,0,1), substr($a,-1)) = (substr($a,-1), substr($a,0,1));
print $a;
# take a ham

#-----------------------------

# 抽取某些子串

$a = "To be or not to be";
$b = unpack("x6 A6", $a); # 跳过6个字符，抽取6个字符

print $b;
# or not


($b, $c) = unpack("x6 A2 X5 A2", $a); # 跳过6个字符, 抽出2个字符的子串;后退5个字符,抽出2个字符的子串

print "$b/n$c/n";
# or

#

# be

#-----------------------------

#下面是一个综合的例子，主要是一个函数，实现了

#一种模板格式的输出。

sub cut2fmt {
    my(@positions) = @_;
    my $template = '';
    my $lastpos = 1;
    foreach $place (@positions) {
        $template .= "A" . ($place - $lastpos) . " ";
        $lastpos = $place;
    }
    $template .= "A*";
    return $template;
}

$fmt = cut2fmt(8, 14, 20, 26, 30);
print "$fmt/n";
# A7 A6 A6 A6 A4 A*
