CIS 2279 Homework Assignment #09

Due Friday, Nov 2, 2007

All files created must be saved in your class directory /mnt/homes/CLASSES/CIS2279/<username>

Create a perl script named lab09.pl in your user directory. The script that has the following features:
1. Open the file /mnt/homes/CLASSES/CIS2279/LAB09/list.txt in read-only mode.
2. Read through the file and filter out strings that match the following:
  1. Strings that begin with the letter "t", have "a" as the third character and end with the letter "s" .
  2. Strings that contain the text "xi" or "ix" in them.
  3. Strings that contain four vowel characters in a row ("aeiou", including "y")
3. Print the matching strings for each of these items to the screen and to a file in the user's home directory (any user who runs the script, not just your home directory). From lab #7 we had shown the %ENV hash contains all the values from the user environment. The path to the user's home directory is defined by the "HOME" key. So $ENV{HOME} will return the path to the user's home directory.
