RegExp::Common::lingua(3)




NAME

       Regexp::Common::lingua -- provide regexes for language related stuff.


SYNOPSIS

           use Regexp::Common qw /lingua/;

           while (<>) {
               /^$RE{lingua}{palindrome}$/    and  print "is a palindrome\n";
           }


DESCRIPTION

       Please consult the manual of Regexp::Common for a general description
       of the works of this interface.

       Do not use this module directly, but load it via Regexp::Common.

       $RE{lingua}{palindrome}

       Returns a pattern that recognizes a palindrome, a string that is the
       same if you reverse it. By default, it only matches strings consisting
       of letters, but this can be changed using the "{-chars}" option.  This
       option takes a character class (default is "[A-Za-z]") as argument.

       If "{-keep}" is used, only $1 will be set, and set to the entire match.

       This pattern requires at least perl 5.6.0.

        The whole world understands RCS/CVS version numbers, that 1.9 is an
        older version than 1.10. Except CPAN. Curse the idiot(s) who think
        that version numbers are floats (in which universe do floats have
        more than one decimal dot?).
        Everything is bumped to version 2.100 because CPAN couldn't deal
        with the fact one file had version 1.10.
