How to replace partial string
I have a list of strings in file:
10 10 AAA
120 13 BBBBB
23 11 CCCCC
11 32 DDDDDD
I want to replace first column of the text such as: 10, 129, 23, 11 with 11, 22, 33, 44.
I can do line by line, but just not sure how to replace partial string without losing those spaces.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Everyone,
I have:
$val="QQ3_1899_CD4".
The output will be:
1899.
I did $val =~ /(\d+)/g; the output is 318994, then i use substr to get those 1899. This is not efficient.
Is any simple way, like just one line can do? Thanks (1 Reply)
