Oh man that regex lol

I am currently using regex as part of a uni assignment. Or will be when I start it. The lecturer decided to surprise us with a language we haven't used before. It's good because we get to learn something new but it's sort of bad because he takes great pleasure in springing something we haven't learned yet and making it an important part of our grade. It's Perl and so far I'm not super into it because I have been blessed with Python, but I'm having a little fun with it so far.

Surprisingly the programming stuff we've learned so far in other years hasn't been great and it wasn't until the last year or so that I actually enjoyed doing it, although I'm still a total noob programming-wise.
