I use regular expressions all of the time but this is stumping me. I have something like the the following:
$string = "gg|3345678|bb|AE839322331.1|";
$ref = "AYJFDSKOPWEROIUEJKFNVKSLOUWERJAH";
If I use a simple regular expression the program tells me that $string is found inside of $ref!
if($ref =~ m/$string/){
..... # the program will execute this code when it shouldn't!
}
Any advice would be very much appreciated
