Regular Expressions

Ignoring Case

• To ignore uppercase and lowercase distinctions when performing your match, include a "i" character after your final search delimiter (i.e. "/").
• Example:
  

  # Multigenderfier
  $theVar = "iT";
  if ($theVar =~ /he|she|it/i) {
      (print "Match One\n");  # Would Match
  }
  $theVar = "HE";
  if ($theVar =~ /he|she|it/i) {
      (print "Match One\n");  # Would Match
  }
