How do i match "00:04" and "4+21:08" which is ("days+hrs:mins" and "hrs:mins") in a file. I would like to combine regex patterns so I can calculate running time.
This is what i got for regex but does not match "00:04" --> (\d\d)(\:)(\d\d)
if($string = ~ m/(\d)(\+)(\d\d)(\:)(\d\d)/)
{
#code goes here
}Jump to Post$string="4+21:00"; if ($string=~ m{(\d\+)?(\d\d)(\:)(\d\d)}){ print "\nMatched : $&"; } else { print "\nNot Matched"; }
$string="4+21:00";
if ($string=~ m{(\d\+)?(\d\d)(\:)(\d\d)}){
print "\nMatched : $&";
}
else {
print "\nNot Matched";
}the "?". thats the key. thanks
