You could try something like this:
foreach(@array){
unless($_ =~ /^\d+$/){
$scalar .= "\'$_\',"; # append the variable surrounded by single
quotes
}
}
chop scalar; #get rid of the last comma
It's a little messy, but it should work.

Subject: Creating a string with quotes and delimiters from an Array
Hi,
I have an array ----> @array = qw(alf bert charlie 4)
and I want a string that contains this value < 'alf','bert','charlie','4' >
with the single quotes and commas.
I know I can do this $string = join ( ',' , @array); which gives me this
----> < one|two|three|four> but how do I get the single quotes around each
word.
Also, how can I check if one of the values is numeric so I dont put quotes
around it? So the result is like this ---> < 'alf','bert','charlie',4 >
Thanks
Gus
