hi,
Can someone explain if/what is the difference in perl,using function prxmatch, between space and word boundary \b?
Example adding a space (after POBOX):
if prxmatch ("m/POBOX /oi",BILL_ADDR_LINE1)> 0
Example adding word boundary \b :
if prxmatch ("m/POBOX\b/oi",BILL_ADDR_LINE1)> 0
Thank you
The first one only match "POBOX ".
But the second one will match "POBOX " or "POBOX," or "POBOX." .................
