Hello everyone, I am quite new to Perl,can you kindly help me out with this new problem of mine. I have a file F1.txt, my job is to assign numbers after each string in a file according to its line number as shown in an example above. I have so far just managed to assign a number to each of the lines with this Perl one-liner

perl -pe '$_= ++$a." $_" if /./'

Answer 1

Maybe as follows:

perl -pe 's/(?<=\w)\b/$./g;'
