I believe the first two match digits at the end of a string, the first one without h on the end, the second with h on the end. Possibly with intention of grabbing it from the $1 etc specials later.

The third deletes any 'h' characters in the string.

Without more context it's difficult to explain why they're doing that.

Especially when you could just use find.

NAME
Perl::Critic::Utils::McCabe - Functions that calculate the McCabe score of source code. DESCRIPTION
Provides approximations of McCabe scores. The McCabe score of a set of code describes the number of possible paths through it. The functions here approximate the McCabe score by summing the number of conditional statements and operators within a set of code. See <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclomatic_complexity> for some discussion about the McCabe number and other complexity metrics. INTERFACE SUPPORT
This is considered to be a public module. Any changes to its interface will go through a deprecation cycle. IMPORTABLE SUBS
"calculate_mccabe_of_sub( $sub )" Calculates an approximation of the McCabe number of the code in a PPI::Statement::Sub. "calculate_mccabe_of_main( $doc )" Calculates an approximation of the McCabe number of all the code in a PPI::Statement::Document that is not contained in a subroutine. AUTHOR
