Hi, I have a bunch of email addresses in a row:<br />
<br />
&lt;name@domain1&gt; &lt;name2@domain2&gt; &lt;name3@domain3&gt;<br />
<br />
I'll be honest, I am very bad @ reg exs, how can I get the first address: &nbsp;name@domain1? &nbsp;also, the rest of the addresses are optional. &nbsp;In other words, I'll always have at least one address, but I might also have more.<br />
<br />
Thanks

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages with over 25 years of development. Perl 5 runs on over 100 platforms from portables to mainframes and is suitable for both rapid prototyping and large-scale development projects.  Perl gained widespread popularity as a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripting language, in part due to its regular expression and string parsing abilities. In addition to CGI, Perl is used for graphics programming, system administration, network programming, finance, bioinformatics, and other applications.

A regular expression ("regex") is a sequence of characters that define a search pattern, mainly for use in pattern matching with strings, or string matching, i.e. "find and replace"-like operations. Regular expression processors are found in several search engines, search and replace dialogs of several word processors and text editors, and in the command lines of text processing utilities, such as sed and AWK. Many programming languages provide regular expression capabilities, some built-in, for example Perl, JavaScript, Ruby, AWK, and Tcl, and others via a standard library, for example .NET languages, Java, Python and C++ (since C++11). Most other languages offer regular expressions via a library.
