Hello list, I have a problem that I've solved with some logic and a few lines of code but I'm sure that there is a good regexp that can do the job. So I ask the regexp gurus of this list whether they have a solution. Let's start with this : ---------------------------------------------------- $number = 12345678.1234 $number =~ s/./,/; # change decimal point to French notation spacify($number); # Do the magic print "$number\n"; ---------------------------------------------------- and this should print : 12 345 678,1234 For the moment I have a (too) complicated sub spacify and I would like to simplify it to a regexp. Is this possible ? How ? Of course we can use this to output the number in English notation like '12,345,678.1234', same thing... Any clue ? I'm sure this is an old problem...
