String comparision

I have a string like ab or abc of whatever length. But i want to know whether another string ( for example, abcfghijkl, OR a<space> bcfghijkl ab<space> cfghijkl OR a<space>bcfghijkl OR ab<space> c<space> fghijkl ) starts with ab or abc... space might existing on the longer string... If so, i wanna remove the ab or abc from the longer string and get the rest of it. Can you please guide me how to do this..

Thanks in advance!

NAME
MooseX::Types::Common::String - Commonly used string types SYNOPSIS
use MooseX::Types::Common::String qw/SimpleStr/; has short_str => (is => 'rw', isa => SimpleStr); ... #this will fail $object->short_str("string with breaks"); DESCRIPTION
A set of commonly-used string type constraints that do not ship with Moose by default. o SimpleStr A Str with no new-line characters. o NonEmptySimpleStr A Str with no new-line characters and length > 0 o LowerCaseSimpleStr A Str with no new-line characters, length > 0 and no uppercase characters A coercion exists via "lc" from NonEmptySimpleStr o UpperCaseSimpleStr A Str with no new-line characters, length > 0 and no lowercase characters A coercion exists via "uc" from NonEmptySimpleStr o Password o StrongPassword o NonEmptyStr A Str with length > 0 o LowerCaseStr A Str with length > 0 and no uppercase characters. A coercion exists via "lc" from NonEmptyStr o UpperCaseStr A Str with length > 0 and no lowercase characters. A coercion exists via "uc" from NonEmptyStr o NumericCode A Str with no new-line characters that consists of only Numeric characters. Examples include, Social Security Numbers, PINs, Postal Codes, HTTP Status Codes, etc. Supports attempting to coerce from a string that has punctuation in it ( e.g credit card number 4111-1111-1111-1111 ).
