How to Append a String to another String in Perl


How to Append a String to another String in Perl ?

Answer

To append a string to another string in Perl, you can use the . operator or the .= operator.



✐ Examples

1 Append " World" to "Hello"

In this example,

  1. We create a scalar variable named $str1 with a value of "Hello".
  2. We then use the . operator to append the string " World" to $str1.
  3. The . operator concatenates the two strings and returns the result.
  4. Finally, we print the concatenated string to the console.

Perl Program

my $str1 = "Hello";
$str1 = $str1 . " World";
print $str1;

Output

Hello World

2 Append "apple" to "banana"

In this example,

  1. We create a scalar variable named $str2 with a value of "banana".
  2. We then use the .= operator to append the string "apple" to $str2.
  3. The .= operator concatenates the two strings and modifies the original $str2.
  4. Finally, we print the concatenated string to the console.

Perl Program

my $str2 = "banana";
$str2 .= "apple";
print $str2;

Output

bananaapple
